Tikorangi is a tranquil rural district in North Taranaki, New Zealand. Drive through and you may notice the school, church, and the local hall, but that would tell you very little of the wealth and richness of the people who lived there and all that has happened during the last century and a half.
Effort and Enterprise tells the stories of world leading pioneers and academics, farmers, sports people, and some remarkable women, and their enterprising history. They survived the dirt-floor homes, mud track roads, and one of the world's most spectacular bridges; felt the effort of taking scrub-covered land and turning it into highly productive farms; discovered the innovative machines manufactured and exported around the world.
Journey through the hidden history of Tikorangi and discover its inhabitants' fascinating stories.
