Title: Brigit Jones goes Backpacking
Product review: I've hiked a few of the Great Hikes and when I found this book I was very excited. Sad to say, this book reveals more about the pretentious, condescending, obsessed with minutiae author than interesting facts about New Zealand. Her poor, high-school level prose is rivaled only by her abilities to overgeneralize and self-aggrandize. That may sound harsh, but reading this book is like watching "The Office"--and if you think Ricky Gervais was awkward, then this book will be a real treat. I can't recommend this to anyone unless they happen to love both tramping and whiny, awkward Brits.
