Description

Steam at the Rainbow's End, Railways and the Thames Goldfields by K. I. Bullock. 'The goldfield towns of New Zealand each had a character, an indiduality of its own but no other, it seems, had the same degree of character and individuality as had Thames. Hokitika may have had more pubs, Charleston may have experienced greater flucuations in its fortunes, Reefton may have claimed as its own the name of Quartzopolis . . . but Thames; Thames was more than a geographical location, more than a goldfield - Thames was a state of mind, of confidence that lead to near distasterous speculation and of nostalgia that found expression in the formation of Old Thames Boys Club.' This small booklet has light to medium general wear but remains tight and bright.
