Concluding that existing tourist books did no justice to the city’s creative reputation, Fitzbeck Creative directors Mike Fitzsimons and Nigel Beckford drew up a list of their favourite Wellington haunts and worked with two young illustrators, Sandi MacKechnie and Jess Lunnon, to bring their vision to life. If you like Wellington, you’ll love this gloriously illustrated celebration of one of the world’s coolest and quirkiest cities! We have a whole bunch waiting for you for just $40 each at Madame Fancy Pants, swell for gifts too! xxx
