A Pilgrim's Way in New Zealand Alan Mulgan

London: Oxford University Press, 1935 first edition hardcover, 163mm x 245mm, 142pp. Maps on endpapers, coloured frontispiece, b/w plates and index.

The charm of this book is its description of another New Zealand, in which some of the elderly could still remember the Land Wars, when sea travel was still important, though losing out to rail and road, when people still talked of breaking in the land, when Mulgan could recommend some of the New Zealand classics - James Cowan, Jane Mander's 'Story of a New Zealand River', when New Zealand was more rural and parochial, when England was still 'Home' to many, as it was to the author, and when publication was done in London.

This book is a guide to the people and places of historical New Zealand, the byways and highways, the wild scenery and the history and pioneer struggles. Illustrated with black and white photographs.;

includes dustjacket. A good copy
