ABOUT THE BOOK
A richly illustrated journey through the history of acclimatisation in New Zealand.
This book explores how foreign animals and plants, introduced with the hope of “improving” the land, reshaped Aotearoa’s landscapes, wildlife, and identity.
Blending fine art photography with historical research, The Long Shadow brings to life both the beauty and the consequences of New Zealand’s altered wild. Through portraits of birds, mammals, and the stories that surround them, the book invites readers to reflect on the lasting impact of colonisation on the natural world.
