Rangitoto is a striking and iconic feature of the Hauraki Gulf. In this track we hear the story from Rangitoto family bach owner Leni Sullivan and her daughter Katherine Wagner. In an interview with Susan Yoffee they recall the history of the family bach and the life lived and loved on the island. The interview was recorded in 1989 and is drawn from a larger set of recordings for the Rangitoto Historic Conservation Trust Bach Histories Collection.
