Description

Prehistoric New Zealand by Graeme Stevens, Matt McGlone and Beverley McCulloch. Illustrations by Vivian Ward and Geoffrey Cox. 'From the beginning of the European exploration of New Zealand it was realised that its islands had been isolated from the rest of the world, resulting in a unique natural history which had developed in the absence of mammalian predators. And yet it is only in the last 20 years that the reason for this have become apparent and in an exciting synthesis of various sciences our understanding of the earth's history has been radically altered. We now know that New Zealand was once part of a great super-continent known as Gondwana, which comprised all the major southern land masses.' Prehistoric New Zealand tells this fascinating story from New Zealand's genesis to the fatal impact of man. A VERY LARGE BOOK THAT WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FREIGHT. Previous owners name or inscription whited out on inside front page.
