I'm not the "Dave Noble" that is in the book (its a pretty common name!). Although I have done a reasonable number of trips in NZ and was born there. I bought a copy of the "Trampers Journey" book a few years back to read on the bus between tramps - and I thought it an excellent book - well worth a read - not only by trampers, but also by bushwalkers here in Australia - and especially those who have walked with a club. So - thanks to Mark for making it available free for download. Good for a kindle.
