I have visited numerous old country pubs especially in the South Island when I was part of a TV crew. Most of these pubs had fascinating stories associated with them. The tales were generally about a local person who accomplished wild and wonderful deeds during his life. They were mainly male as early European settlers tended to be men with the physical strength to survive the challenges they faced. However, there are also some wonderful stories about women who stood up for their rights and achieved remarkable outcomes despite the limitations of their time.
