RIVERS   New Zealand’s shared legacy  recognises the importance of our rivers in all their power, tranquillity and fragility. This book shows how rivers represent constancy and connect us to a Polynesian and a European past as well as to the future. We cannot take our rivers for granted. We draw upon them for everything from life itself to sustaining our economic well-being to recreational use. 
Rivers is a unique collaboration by veteran environmental historian David Young, who gives expression to many of the voices of our rivers across the issues of history, ecology, hydrology and water quality issues; and talented photographer Aliscia Young.
