Overview

A life lived through the windscreen - across mountains, coastlines, ferries, storms, and the unpredictable beauty of Aotearoa. For years, Gary Ferguson drove tour coaches the length of New Zealand, carrying travellers through rain-soaked mountain passes, sunlit plains, ferry crossings, and the wild, unforgettable landscapes of both islands. From the Desert Road to the Homer Tunnel, from Queenstown sleet to West Coast downpours, he saw the country in motion - and the people who came to discover it. In this warm, funny, and deeply human memoir, Gary shares the stories that stayed with him: - passengers who made him laugh - passengers who made him worry - passengers he never forgot - the guides who walked beside him - the weather that tested him - the roads that shaped him - and the quiet moments that revealed the heart of the job Along the way, he revisits the rugged years captured in his earlier memoir Airstrips at Dawn, weaving together the young man he was with the seasoned driver he became. Through the Windscreen is a celebration of the land, the road, and the strange alchemy that happens when strangers travel together. It is a tribute to the drivers who carry them, the guides who share the journey, and the country that reveals itself one bend at a time. Climb aboard. Find a seat. The road is waiting.
