Ruapehu: Tribute to a Mountain by J. C. Graham A. H. & A. W. Reed, 22/6d When Te Heu Heu Tukino entrusted his sacred mountain to the New Zealand nation, we gained a rich heritage. This book is an account of the recent history of Tongariro National Park, and has some excellent illustrations. It is a fine guide-book to the district, and of particular value to people interested in winter sports. The Maori history of the area is dismissed in a couple of pages. It seems rather a pity that in such an ambitious book more space could not have been devoted to this, for it would surely have been of interest to many readers.
