Barrie Carruthers’ Embrace the Challenge celebrates the legendary Kiwi No. 8 wire mindset, tracing one farmer-inventor’s leap from paddock to prototype in a breezy autobiography packed with true stories and illustrated snapshots.
This 2013 paperback captures the can-do spirit that turns farm animals, scrap metal and sheer grit into New Zealand-style innovation. Readers from young adults upwards will find practical lessons, honest setbacks and memorable characters alongside the laughs.
The copy is in very good shape: clean pages, tight binding, no dog-ears, from a smoke-free home. Better still, the front inner cover is hand-signed by the author, giving collectors and Kiwi-culture fans an extra touch of authenticity.
