Softcover. Zustand: Fine No dust jacket as issued. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket As Issued. 2024 edition of a title first published in 1994. 634, [2 (blank)] pages. Page dimensions: 230 x 154mm. "Journalist James Herries Beattie recorded southern Maori history for almost fifty years and produced many popular books and pamphlets. 'Traditional Lifeways of the Southern Maori' is his most important work. This significant resource, which is based on a major field project Beattie carried out for the Otago Museum in 1920, was first published by Otago University Press in 1994 and is now available in this new edition. Beattie had a strong sense that traditional knowledge needed to be recorded fast. For twelve months, he interviewed people from Foveaux Strait to North Canterbury, and from Nelson and Westland. He also visited libraries to check information compiled by earlier researchers, spent time with Maori in Otago Museum recording southern names for fauna and artefacts, visited pa sites, and copied notebooks lent to him by informants. Finally he worked his findings up into systematic notes, which eventually became manuscript 181 in the Hocken Collections, and now this book. Editor Atholl Anderson introduces the book with a biography of Beattie, a description of his work and information about his informants. Beattie wrote a foreword and introduction to the Murihiku section, which are also included here." With a Foreword by Sir Tipene O'Regan.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. A particularly substantial and extensively illustrated Victorian edition of John Howie's celebrated Scots Worthies, the classic collection of biographies commemorating the leading figures of Scotland's Reformation and Covenanting history. First published in 1775, Howie's work preserved the lives and testimonies of reformers, ministers, Covenanters and martyrs who struggled for Presbyterianism and religious liberty in Scotland during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This enlarged edition, edited by the prominent Scottish Presbyterian historian and author Rev. J. A. Wylie (1808-1890), considerably extends the original work with additional biographies and historical notes, together with Wylie's substantial introductory history of the period. Among the figures represented are John Knox and many of the leading personalities of the Scottish Reformation and Covenanting movements. Particularly impressive in this large-format edition are its numerous full-page portraits and historical illustrations, together with a folding facsimile of the National Covenant. Wylie was a prolific historian of Protestantism and is best remembered for his multi-volume History of Protestantism, making his editorship particularly appropriate to Howie's strongly Presbyterian account of Scottish history. The Scots Worthies; Their Lives and Testimonies. Including Many Additional Notes and Lives of Eminent Worthies Not Contained in the Original Collection. Edited by the Rev. J. A. Wylie, LL.D., assisted by Rev. James Anderson. With an Introductory Sketch of the History of the Period by the Editor. Published by William Mackenzie, London, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Undated, but thought to be 1876 (from National Library of Scotland / Worldcat). Printed in Glasgow. A good, and very substantial, hardback with black leather spine and corners, with cloth over boards featuring John Knox gilt portrait to front. Spine with raised bands, and tooled gilt decoration to compartments. Covers are scuffed and bumped and cloth colour faded with some soiling. Binding is completely sound. Some spotting to endpapers, and offsetting to tissue guards from Plates. The Plates themselves remain very good indeed with just the very occasional scattered spot. With gilt edges all round. The fold-out featuring the covenant has a tear where it meets the gutter and has an archival tape repair to rear. Text in English. (iv) titles/contents + 8pp Recommendations to this edition + lxxxiv + 872pp + 30 Plates, all but one with bound-in tissue guards, including frontispiece of John Knox and fold-out facsimile of the Covenant. All Plates present as called for. Dimensions: approximately: 292mm high x 241mm wide x 65mm deep. Weight: approximately 3.43kg (unpacked). A heavy volume, but no extra postage required other than that indicated.…
