Norwegian culture, heritage and woodstacking with bestselling author Lars Mytting
from Culture 101
In the 1860s and 70s two Norwegian settlements were established in the lower North Island. As the name of one of those today suggests - Norsewood - Norwegians were invited to settle here to clear a huge swathe of forest known as Seventy Mile Bush. Which makes the arrival of Norwegian novelist Lars Mytting this weekend down the road at Featherston Booktown Karukatea Festival rather apt.
