Añadir al carritoSoftcover. Condición: As New. First Edition Thus. Uber-scarce in the trade, there being no sets in this state and condition. An As New condition set of the life and works of William Colenso, complete in two volumes, published in 2011 and 2012 in a First Paperback Edition state, each being sterling exemplars in softcover format, with unfurled tips, tight bindings, and clean internals, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear to the glossy pictorial card-stock wraps. From a publisher's blurb comes "In his more than 200 letters to editors, Colenso wrote mostly for local Hawke's Bay readers. But he was a national celebrity for his opinions, as the clippings from papers outside the Bay scattered through this collection and his widely published obituary notices demonstrate. One correspondent to the Wanganui Herald in January 1882, similarly sympathetic to the plight of Maori, tellingly signed himself, 'COLENSO'S GHOST.' The letters reproduced in this book are all that can be found at present. As well, some other newspaper items have been included if they threw light on the more obscure letters." Give Your Thoughts Life 2011 features a Table of Contents that shows: Introduction; Letters 1847-1859; Letters 1860-1869; Letters 1870-1879; Letters 1880-1889; Letters 1890-1898; The Final Chapter; Index of Letters; [10], 11-497 pp. and with full notes, bibliography and index.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: VG+. No Jacket. 1st. When Carterton planned to celebrate its cenennial in 1957 the noted and respected historian for the lower area on the North Island , Arthur Bagnall, was probably the automatic choice as editor/author of the town's history, having several similar regional publications to his name. The result was a compact, but comprehensive, account to the town's first century with initial suveys in the area being carreid out in the mid-1840s, but organised settlement was delayed by negotatiions with Maori residents reluctant to sell the land, however, this was settled after the Governor. Sir George Grey, personally interceeded. Bagnall's study follows from that point the development of the township, the establishment of farming in the surrounding area, with sawmilling being a major industry for many years -- seven mills operating in the district by 1878. As with many NZ rural areas, Carterton experienced its share of economic ups and downs, destructive fires in the town area with a particularly serious outbreak in 1872, difficulties in establishing civic amenitiesa such as roading, which saw the setting up of a number of roads boards, leading eventually to the desicion to declare Carterton as a borough taken in 1886, with formal status obtained the following year, Bagnall's Carterton history provides a convincing word portrait the typical problems of growth and progress for pioneer rural communities throughout NZ, with every aspect of early settlement expertly examined. First edition of 1957, 101 pages, illustrated throughoute with b/w historic photos, eary town lay-out plan.some art, drawing plus numerous portraits of propminant citizens, photo mopntage to front pastedown.
