Last week we spoke to a photographer and poet who produced a book based on his walkabouts around Te Anau. Today, Mosgiel's the inspiration for a local who's turned his musings into a bespoke hardcover book.

Alert Level Four is written by Athol Parks and produced by David Stedman. They're currently working on a second edition after the first 50 sold out.
