Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. This copy appears to be unread. In this illustrated history of Old Invercargill, John Hall-Jones considers himself extremely fortunate to have inherited his father's extensive collection of photographs of early Invercargill. But buildings need people in them to bring them to life and here again he has been fortunate to have inherited his father's records of the early descriptions of the town by the pioneers of Invercargill. Here is Bishop Harper's account of a most disturbing night in the first hotel in Invercargill and Sherwood Roberts' delightful story of the house warming parties at Invercargill's first two hotels. Later comes the tale of a famous character in the early town, the 'Black Doctor', who was neither black nor a doctor. Then there are the stories of how the fire brigade suffered the embarrassment of burning its own fire station to the ground; the collection of over 1,000 'Birds, Beasts, Insects etc', in Andrew McKenzie's pie shop, which was the very beginnings of the Southland Museum; Todd's auction market, where for many years town and country have met to auction and recycle their second-hand goods; the crisis that hit Invercargill when it voted to be 'dry'. (Publisher).…

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. This copy is like new. Hall-Jones writes of the arrivals of the early Maori and later the Europeans, the navigators, sealers and whalers, in the southern part of New Zealand. In doing so he takes us to the places where they first made landfall and shows us the visible evidence that survives there today including: • Dusky Sound - the remains of Cook's observatory of 1793. Also the relics of the first two European houses in NZ, the first shipbuilding and the first shipwreck. • Spit Island, Preservation Inlet - the site of two Maori battles in the 1780s. • Cuttle Cove - site of the first whaling station in New Zealand. • Codfish Island - first European settlement in southern New Zealand and now a sanctuary for the very rare kakapo. In visiting these historic places the author makes full use of the original firsthand descriptions of Dr Edward Shortland, Bishop Selwyn, Captain Stokes, Commissioner Mantell and Chief Surveyor Thomson, whose journals are important treasures in our history. The text is liberally illustrated with some 200 photographs, including a priceless collection of Maori taonga (treasures) in the Southland Museum. Other photos of historic objects include: • Greenstone Mere • The first building in Invercargill • A Benz benzine driven three-wheeler • Takahe (Notornis mantelli • Old whalepot at Fortrose • Tuatara • The Resolution alongside Astronomer Point • Raising one of the Endeavour's cannons • Hei-tiki (Publisher).…
