Hog, Dogs & A Rifle

Hunter, adventurer and general outdoor enthusiast Kim Swan has been entertaining Kiwis for decades with her hunting escapades. In this, her tenth, book, Kim Swan shares her favourite pig-hunting stories from recent years, from the hilarious to the hair-raising and even the heartbreaking.

Send Kim out into the South Island high country with her battered Remington and her trusty canines and there's a high chance she'll snag a hog or two. There aren't many around who can spin a yarn like Kim can either, providing a rare insight into the hunting and adventuring that goes on in the back blocks of Marlborough, New Zealand.
