Description

Te Anau Anchorage by Lawson Burrows.'Here is a highly entertaining story of life at one of the most beautiful southern lakes in New Zealand - Te Anau. And for Lawson Burrows this literally was an 'anchorage' when he settled there after World War II. Within a short time he established a busy tourist launch business on the lake the success of which was assured when he and his partner discovered the beautiful blow-worm caves, now a Mecca for visitors to the area. But Te Anau Anchorage is also the tale of rabbiters and musterers, hunters and fishermen, 'Hokonui whisky' and the countless characters who helped give colour to the district. Among those characters Lawson Burrows himself emerges as an adventurous explorer, entrepreneur, but, above all, a delightful raconteur who has spiced his tale with humour and human warmth.'This book is very tidy and a great read.
