The Half-Gallon Jar and its sequel are a great read. The first was re-published in 1963 so both are in condition commensurate with age.

Still, a great read and a great laugh!

From the book: "A fair question would be whether Hori is really a Maori. He is not. In real life he is W. Norman McCallum, of Waiatarua Road, Remuera, Auckland, a New Zealander of Scottish descent. As a commercial traveler in the North Auckland and Waikato districts for many years he made countless friends among the Maori people, and his admiration of "the first New Zealanders" is unbounded.

A light-hearted look at life in Aotearoa! in the 1960's!
