‘[Ussher and Walsh are] a bit of a dream team for Olveston’ — Leah McFall, RNZ’s Nine to Noon ‘This lavish, full-colour coffee table book reveals the history thanks to the text by John Walsh, while Jane Ussher’s stunning photographs showcase the home’s exquisite interiors and their treasures. This is a visual feast and a handsome book to savour’ — Karen McMillan, Canvas Magazine ‘There is no confusion here about whether text or imagery should dominate. We have come for the pictures, and they do not disappoint. The explainer by John Walsh, a doyenne of New Zealand architectural writing, is fascinating and well-researched.’ — Jenny Nichols, Waiheke Weekender ‘A tribute to a slice of New Zealand history’ — Jane Phare, NZ Herald
