Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Cheerful Yesterdays' is an engaging and insightful autobiography that chronicles the life and career of Oscar Thorwald Johan Alpers, a prominent figure in the legal and literary history of early twentieth-century New Zealand. Born in Denmark and arriving in New Zealand as a young immigrant, Alpers provides a vivid narrative of his journey from humble beginnings to his eventual appointment as a Judge of the Supreme Court. The work is noted for its wit, warmth, and keen observation of the social and intellectual climate of a burgeoning colony. The memoir details the author's experiences at Canterbury College, his formative years as a teacher and journalist, and his distinguished rise through the legal profession. Through personal anecdotes and professional reflections, 'Cheerful Yesterdays' captures the spirit of Christchurch and the broader New Zealand landscape during a period of significant social transition. It remains an important historical document, offering a unique perspective on the immigrant experience and the evolution of the New Zealand judicial system.
