Off the beaten track with Kennedy Warne

From Nine To Noon, 11:51 am on 23 September 2019

Kennedy takes a look at the contemplative journeys of outdoors writer Mark Pickering in his most personal book to date: End of the Road. "How can we better understand the places that draw our eye and seize our hearts?" Pickering asks. "Perhaps by digging deeper into their own story." And this is what he sets out to do, choosing 15 landscapes from the myriad places he has travelled in 40 years of walking in the New Zealand outdoors.
