In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1969 Reprint in very clean condition. Some minor light edge wear to the jacket. Charlie Douglas—nicknamed Mr Explorer Douglas—was one of the most remarkable early European explorers of New Zealand's South Westland. From 1867 to 1916 he lived almost entirely in the… region's remote valleys, glaciers, and river systems, mapping and recording terrain that was then scarcely known. His observations of geography, weather, flora, fauna, and the rapid decline of native birdlife were unusually perceptive, and his dry, self‑effacing humour runs through his journals.
