About the Book

It's not widely known, but New Zealand has a rich store of song, folklore, poetry, stories and yarns that cry out to be told or sung.

Faces in the Firelight presents a swag of songs about pioneers, goldminers, drifters, rogues and scoundrels, shearers, gumdiggers and moonshiners, and a colourful collection of tall stories, toasts and ditties. You'll never be stuck for a song or a story again!
