Customer reviews
"A must have for all New Zealand home libraries."
This is a beutifully illustrated book that captures the history and vibrancy of Maungakiekie (One Tree Hill). A great book to take on a walk around the mountain and identify the kumara pits and palisades that are still present there. All Aucklanders should get a copy as it tells the story of one of Auckland's greatest landmarks and heritage site.
