The Last Muster - A Journey Through the Spectacular Scenery and Rich History of the High Country of Aotearoa
Author(s): Carly Thomas
A journey into the high country of Aotearoa Mustering by horse is a tradition that goes back to the first run-holders and is, for some, still a rich and vital part of life on New Zealand's high-country stations. From Otago's Greenstone Station to Muller in the Awatere, Smedley in Hawke's Bay to Chatham Island's Bluff Station, The Last Muster is a book about the old ways, lives lived in the saddle, and a love for horses that is hard-won and tightly knotted.
Product Information
Carly was a horse-mad kid born into a non-horsey family and she spent years begging for horse rides from friends. Her mum relented and got her a pony when she was a teenager, and she has never been without a horse since. Carly's first job out of school was in a race-horse stable and, if nothing else, that job taught her how to hang on. Carly is a former journalist for Stuff, and she also spent time as the in-house writer of the Shepherdess Magazine. She now lives in rural Manawatu with her husband, three teenagers and a trio of, you guessed it, horses.
