Description

Kiwi : More Than A Bird by Richard Wolfe. 'If one measure of a people is how they see themselves, then New Zealanders are a peculiar race since they have chosen as their national symbol the Kiwi - a bird that cannot fly and which looks as if it had been designed by a committee. Yet from nocturnal obscurity, it has risen in fame until now not only are New Zealanders known as Kiwis, but their currency is known as the Kiwi and the bird's image proliferates, littering the urban landscape. Not bad for a bird that is nearly blind. The story of the kiwi's enduring popular appeal is a fascinating tale told here for the first time.'
