Description

The New Zealand Guide (1962) Superseding Wise's Index to Every Place in New Zealand. Compiled by Edward Stewart Dollimore. ' A comprehensive Gazetteer Geographical Reference and Travel Guide.' E. S. Dollimore - Ted -to many friends says he has been learning about places since his school days and continues to do so. When he became identified with the travel industry in 1920 these activities were intensified. The son of a postmaster, who had served in several places as widely at Tokomaru Bay and Port Chalmers, it was perhaps not astonishing that he early became knowledgeable concerning many localities. Transfers from place to place since the early 1990s involved travel for the family by horse-drawn coaches, by steamship services that no longer carry passengers around our coasts, as well as by railway. Like many of his contemporaries, therefore, his travel experiences extend from the coaching days to those of the airlines.' The dust jacket has much wear and tape repair but the book remains tight and bright.
