Sinopsis

Excerpt from Our Kin Across the Sea

Macaulay's New Zealand traveller has not yet appeared. The phenomena which he was to moralise over are not yet ripe for him. Mr. Firth in the interval tells us what he thinks about America; and with his eyes to help us we shall learn, better than from most other books which have been written about it, the form which the British communities scattered over the globe are now assuming, in what points they agree, and in what direction differences are likely to show themselves.

Excerpt from Our Kin Across the Sea

This Little Book is its own sufficient recommendation, and to those who read it will need no other. The author, however, being a stranger in England, has desired me to say in a few words who he is, and what claims he possesses on the attention of his fellow-countrymen.

Mr. Firth is one of the oldest and one of the most distinguished of the New Zealand colonists. He settled in the North Island of New Zealand between thirty and forty years ago. By steady industry and by unblemished integrity of conduct he rose into wealth and influence. While he discharged his duty as a citizen, he has never meddled with professional politics. He has kept clear of speculation, attending steadily to his own business.
