More about the book
Born in Papatoetoe, Auckland, Crump worked for many years as a government deer-culler in areas of New Zealand native forest. He collected his experiences in his first novel A Good Keen Man in 1960. This novel became one of the most popular in New Zealand history, and Crump’s success continued with more fictional works that capitalized on the appeal of his good-natured itinerant self-sufficient characters and idiomatic writing style.
