Title: Te Apiti Manawatu Gorge – Te Au Rere A Te Tonga – A History
Author: FREY MICHELE
At almost 300 pages, author Michele Frey says the book is a rich celebration of the natural, physical, and spiritual elements of one of New Zealand’s special places.
“The book has brought together previously unrecorded information from people past and present of the area, as well as information previously held in sparse locations.
“As the book was developed we maintained sight of Matauranga Maori as a fundamental part of the final publication.
“The book spans a wide range of topics, intentionally. The goal was to really take a deep dive into this place, which has not been done before. Ultimately we hope it has captured the essence of Te Apiti.
“Content includes the natural environment and unique landform; pre-human, previous and current flora and fauna; rich Maori and early European history; inhabitants and some of their stories; construction of the road and history of rail; land use including farming and wind turbines; and recreation.
