Description

Crest to Crest: Impressions of Canterbury Prose & Poetry. Edited by Karen Zelas. Photography by Henry Zelas.'Crest to Crest is an anthology of writings about Canterbury gleaned from 78 authors nationwide and featuring a selection of nonfiction, creative fiction, memoir, short stories and poetry. Many of the writers in this anthology are of national and international repute, while others are established or emerging writers of all ages.. Subjects range from contemplating the birth of the province - historical pieces of both fact and fiction - to the people who have inhabited the land over time. The city, the sea, the shore, the bush, farming, tramping, flora and fauna are celebrated. Although the focus is on Canterbury, most topics have relevance to New Zealand as a whole. Ours is a country of pioneers, immigrants and farmers. Every New Zealander has gazed at the sculpural form of a cabbage tree, heard the melodious call of the bellbird, and in every corner of this land our mountains, our maunga, are revered.'
