Starting with the ancient journey of proto-Europeans from Africa to the Middle East some 160, 000 years ago, No Other Home Than This then describes the development of Europe and the eventual expansion of settlement, through exploration and immigration, to the farthest parts of the earth. The author looks at the adaptations and changes made by Europeans after their arrival in New Zealand and how, in time, these remote islands became the only place they called home.
