True New Zealand stories from life at sea

Very Good Condition – minor cover and edge wear. Spine fading and page edge tanning.

Edited by Tessa Duder, Salt Beneath the Skin brings together personal accounts from New Zealanders whose lives have been shaped by the sea. Sailors, voyagers and maritime adventurers describe danger, endurance, discovery and the daily realities of travelling beyond the coast. The collection captures both the practical demands of seafaring and the powerful emotional pull that keeps people returning to open water. Varied, vivid and distinctly Kiwi, these stories celebrate skill, courage and the enduring relationship between New Zealand and the ocean surrounding it.
