Fabled Land. Mesopotamia Station, By Bruce Ansley and Peter Bush.  Cardback, in dust jacket very good condition, no annotations. 320 pages Published by Random House New Zealand Ltd. 2012 ISBN: 187746063X The historic Mesopotamia Station is located in mid-Canterbury at the headwaters of the magnificent Rangitata gorge. 'Mesopotamia', named by Samuel Butler in 1860, means 'the land between two rivers': it lies between the Rangitata and Forest Creek rivers. Author Bruce Ansley has brilliantly captured the spirit of this great sheep station: from the early pioneers who first braved its harsh winters and searing summers to the ingenuity and drive of the present-day owners, the Prouting family. His description of the landscape is at once poetic and immediate and magnificent, taking the reader right to the heart of the high country. The Mesopotamia story gives an astonishing overview of the history of the area, while the imposing power of the rivers, the hills, and the weather are ever present. In this country the mountains have as much personality and character as the members of the station's longtime owners, the Prouting family.

A Shepherd's Year ; Hall, Peter ISBN 9780474000584 / 0474000583 Publisher: Reed Methuen-reprint; New Zealand , 1987

Very Good hardback with dust jacket, inscription to first end paper, minor shelf/edge wear. 109 pages. If dogs are a shepherd's closest and most faithful companions, then in Peter Hall's case his camera must run a very close second. A South Island high country shepherd and a photographer of exceptional ability and sensitivity, he records in this book his work and environment throughout the seasons of the year. The characters, both animal and human, the humdrum tasks, the grandeur of the mountains, the solitude and Peter Hall has captured his high-country world in all its moods and activities.
