Dunedin, 1890: Suddenly orphaned at the tender age of twenty, Greer Gillies is reduced to working as a humble servant at Larnach Castle, a far cry from the dreams she held before. As she struggles with the stark reality of grief, she finds her journey has only just begun as the decade proves transformative for women’s progress. As she grapples with affairs of the heart, betrayal, the threat of lost love and social upheavals, Greer’s resilience shines through. She becomes a symbol of courage, daring to pursue her dreams, follow her heart and find her place in a world that promises a better future. Spanning the last decade of the 19th century, this page-turning saga explores the healing power of friendship while celebrating the pivotal role women played in one of New Zealand’s most turbulent eras.

The Otautahi Christchurch of today is made up of numerous suburbs, each with its own characteristics, surrounded and built in an area of astonishing natural beauty. In 2010 and 2011 the city was hit by a series of devastating earthquakes. Neighborhoods were destroyed or damaged beyond repair, and the impact on the social and built fabric of the city was almost overwhelming. Much has been written about the resilience and determination of Otautahi Christchurch's people following these devastating earthquakes, and the care and kindness shown by fellow Aotearoa New Zealand citizens and the many who cam to help from all corners of the world. This book focuses on a small part of the wider story of the city's new beginning. It shows how an individual project - the building of a new convention centre - brought people, cultures, architects, designers and artists together to create a building that represents a new, shared, vision of togetherness. It is an optimistic and hopeful vision for the future. The architects, designers and artists of Te Pae committed to creating a building firmly placed in Otautahi Christchurch - a building that aligns with who and what the people here are, rather than a mirror image of another society.

For lovers of the great outdoors and those captivated by the silent allure of Canterbury’s alpine horizon, Andy Buchanan’s Alpine Panorama: A view to a climb is a celebration of nature’s majesty and a tribute to the enduring connection between man and mountain. The distant alpine skyline served as a magnetic force during Buchanan’s childhood, pulling him towards the untamed beauty of the region. Family holidays were spent tramping and skiing amidst the rugged peaks, creating enduring memories that fuelled a passion for the great outdoors. In the Buchanan family home from the Summit Road atop the Port Hills, a cherished outline sketch adorned the wall – a visual guide to 133 peaks visible from this lofty perch. Inspired by this panoramic masterpiece, Andy Buchanan hatched a retirement plan: to conquer each and every one of those peaks. What ensued was a journey of rediscovery and renewed enthusiasm, as he scaled familiar summits and ventured into uncharted territories. This beautifully illustrated narrative is more than a recounting of mountaineering triumphs; it is a testament to a lifetime’s fascination with nature’s grandeur. Through vivid words and breath-taking full-colour images, Buchanan frames the peaks within a contemporary context, weaving in Māori lore, geographic insights, historical details, and engaging anecdotes. Each page resonates with the author’s deep reverence for the alpine landscape, inviting readers to join him on a visual and literary odyssey through the soaring beauty that is the glorious backdrop beloved by all Cantabrians.
