Throughout July and August 2022, Phil Walsh will be touring the West Coast and upper South Island. If you enjoy learning about West Coast/New Zealand history, mining history, or have family links to Denniston or the Buller district, you’ll not want to miss one of these events. Phil extends a warm invitation to his readers—old and new—to a launch near you.
Guests attending the inaugural Westport launch will be treated to a complimentary drink and nibbles. Two VIP guest speakers are sure to regale the Westport audience while author Phil Walsh, will background the Conquering Cascade project. And Black Gold, a stirring music video based on Cascade Creek will premiere too. Don’t be disappointed, book early!!
