Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. A very good clean copy with tiny amounts of light shelf wear only. Coromandel Gold takes readers through the legacy of gold mining in one of New Zealand's most storied regions. It's designed for people who want to walk the old tracks, visit the remains of mining sites, and understand the stories behind them. The book includes colour photographs by Lloyd Homer, as well as black-and-white images, maps, and diagrams that help bring the terrain and its history to life. The authors explain how gold was discovered and mined in places like Thames, Coromandel Town, and Waihi, and they describe the tools, techniques, and challenges faced by miners in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Includes battery sites, tramways, tunnels, and the communities that sprang up around the goldfields. Artikel-Nr. 049880
