The Branches
A portrait of one of New Zealand's last great high country stations.
Beyond Skippers Saddle and through the Shotover Gorge lies The Branches — 96,000 acres of remote, pristine high country with over 150 years of stories to tell. From gold rush pioneers to the farming families who weathered snow, flood and isolation, this beautifully illustrated book traces the full human history of an extraordinary place.
Drawing on personal interviews, archival records and previously unpublished photographs, The Branches captures a landscape that demands everything of those who call it home — and a way of life that quietly endures.
