Description

1) Man pays heavy price for settlement by loss of beauty of countryside.

"Nature is an ironic mistress and has her revenge on man for his transgressions by her own inexorable and retributive methods... it would seem man has lost on the bargain." Thus states Mr. G. L. Adkin in his book "Horowhenua" when describing the penalty of erosion brought about by the destruction of forests in the acquisition of hill farm lands.
