From the cover: 
" Here begins an exploration of what makes different communities in New Zealand unique and yet intrinsic part of our national identity. As Gary McCormick ambles through his experiences on the road he encounters Kiwis as seemingly disparate as the Rastafarians of the East Cape and the well-heeled residents of Fendalton, in Christchurch. His observations, coupled with John McDermott's powerful Photographs, combine to paint vivid and far reaching images of the essence of our Heartland, underscored by comments from residents of the communities featured. A real celebration of Kiwi spirit, a crash course in our country, highlighting our weaknesses and strengths, mix of intangibles that are signposts to our culture". 

This book captures the beautiful characters that make our country great! 

Based on the television series `Heartland'
