What do Ongaonga, Pūponga, Whangaroa, Whangamōmona and Tuatapere have in common?
They're all small towns with big histories.
Peter Janssen and Elizabeth Anderson have been on an epic journey to document the stories of our historic towns.
Their new book is High Hopes and Big Dreams: 165 New Zealand small towns in their twilight.
Some have vanished completely while others have now found a new purpose and are on the up.
Peter joins Kathryn with some of his favourite stories.
