"This work is half autobiographical, one quarter historical (with details of early New Zealand photography and goldmining), and one quarter is a well documented family genealogy. Fifteen members of the Tyree family are featured, across five generations. These include: William Tyree, founder of "Tyree Photographic Studio" in Nelson, his brother Fred Tyree (the brilliant landscape photographic artist) of Takaka and Collingwood, and Sir Alfred William "Bill" Tyree O.B.E., the noted electrical engineer and leading Australian philanthropist. The Author relates his life story, and associated political events; of the Cold War arms race, the Vietnam War, the race to the moon, New Zealand's Nuclear Free stance, and his own political activities from 1990 to 2001. New Zealand's economic reforms on the 1980s are referred to, and the associated upheaval in many employment and personal circumstances. A sub-plot refers to the effects of suffering an illness, and how the Author adapted his life with years of casual and part-time work"--Back cover.
