A Southern Gentry - New Zealanders Who Inherited The Earth

by Stevan Eldred-Grigg

The South Island of New Zealand  in the early 1800s - land of opportunity or province of a rich and powerful elite who carefully nurtured an order of stark social inequality? In this book Eldred-Grigg recounts the early days of colonial life for the landed gentry.  A different look at colonial history. Interesting stuff.
