I bought this book for my dad and he loved it (he spent a year living in the bush as a hunter in his youth). A family living in the most isolated spot in NZ - a two day walk from civilisation is a long way in a small country. Bet there are books about more isolated spots in other countries however!

Cinfhen So fascinating! I love these type of reads!!! #SoManyBooksSoLittleTime #TheStruggleIsReal 7y
Cinfhen I bet your dad has fabulous tales!!! 7y
Mdargusch Wow! I thought the life of the people in the Thorn Birds sounded like torture but they at least had a mail truck come to them. 7y
Centique @Cinfhen he does have some good stories! Like being attacked by a wild pig when he was armed with only a skinning knife 😳😳 He‘s a bit of a legend. 7y
Centique @Mdargusch I have to read that one yet! These guys would have to deal with the snow and cold rather than the heat ⛄️❄️🌧 I could bear that better than the outback! 7y
