Fiordland is New Zealand's last great wilderness - a beautiful, inaccessible region of alpine tops, misty hanging valleys and rain forests draped with curtains of moss as in a fairy tale; a land of prodigious rainfall giving rise to an extraordinary range of plant and animal life. Above all to the hunter, however, Fiordland is wapiti country - home of the magnificent introduced Rocky Mountain elk, the most sought-after of all trophy animals. The Eye of the Hunter splendidly captures the feel of the rugged Fiordland country in all its moods, with many of the author's observations of other wildlife and his human companions as well. His stories are triumphant, funny, sometimes frustrated, but always instructive in bushcraft and survival - and evocative of a unique wilderness. Much more than just another hunting book, The Eye of the Hunter is a book for hunters and nature-lovers alike.
