This stunning book originated as a series of newspaper cuttings published in The Press (Christchurch, N.Z.) between 1924 and 1927. Acland compiled these articles into book form due to public interest. The work is highly valued for its detailed, authoritative accounts of approximately 170 individual sheep runs (stations) and the lives of their early runholders in the Canterbury region.
