What's My Book About: George Lockyer

From Sunday Morning, 11:42 am on 2 November 2025

Last time George Lockyer joined the show he was discussing his book Kiwis On Harleys. Now, the seasoned storyteller is back with his new offering, Fire Stations of Aotearoa. A retired volunteer firefighter himself, George jumped on his bike to visit 27 fire stations across the country and discovered the history, traditions, and humanity of each brigade. 

George is a retired volunteer Station Officer. His new book, Fire Stations of Aotearoa New Zealand, is out now.
