Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Oversized hardcover, 448 pages, copiously illustrated with b&w photos, maps and illustrations, pictorial endpapers, NOT ex-library. Shipping weight over 1.5kg. Book is clean and bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stam…ps, firmly bound. Gentle handling wear, a bit of rubbing to the boards edges. Bright untorn dust jacket. -- The formative decades of Rotorua illuminate the collision of natural forces, cultural encounters, and fragile institutions that shaped a unique colonial township and left records of significance for historians today. -- This book traces Rotorua's history from first settlement through 1900, presenting a detailed reconstruction of how the region confronted turbulence and adapted to opportunity. It recounts resistance around relocating from the 'old town' at Ohinemutu, strained efforts to reconcile Maori land rights with settler-driven investment schemes, and the impact of the Thermal Springs Districts Act on shaping Rotorua's civic birth. Against this backdrop lie dramatic episodes: guerrilla unrest subsiding into agricultural enterprise, the devastating Mount Tarawera eruption, the slow arrival of transport links, and the tactical development of tourism around hot springs, lakes, and forest clearings. Each theme - warfare, commerce, timber and farming, hospitality, and governance - is grounded in archival records left by Maori and European inhabitants. The volume includes population tables, council proceedings, and civic rosters, complemented by illustrations that capture daily life, hardships, and the small triumphs of a community tested by isolation and nature yet resilient in forging a blended identity. -- Distinctive for its integration of social, environmental, and political history, this account stands apart from narrowly economic or tourist-centered narratives. It offers enduring value as an archival baseline for understanding demographic change, Maori-Pakeha relations, and the infrastructural struggles of a colonial frontier town. With New Zealand's heritage tourism and bicultural identity in constant public debate, the book supplies vital context for policy discussions, genealogy, museum interpretation, and regional scholarship. This is a primary resource essential to cultural historians, family researchers, and collectors seeking the foundational narrative of one of New Zealand's most iconic places.
