Author Biography
As Regional Geologist with the New Zealand Geological Survey, Graham Bishop spent much of his career in the footsteps of Alexander McKay, who always seemed to have been there first, notably in Fiordland, the Routeburn and Matukituki and South and Central Otago. He has a strong interest in environmental issues, and has been a member of the Mt Aspiring National Park Board and the Kawarau River Conservation Tribunal.. Formerly a leading mountaineer, he still enjoys walking and visiting the mountains when possible. As well as many scientific papers and much non-fiction, he has written poetry and fiction. This is his seventh book.
