Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. This copy appears to be unread. In this illustrated history of Old Invercargill, John Hall-Jones considers himself extremely fortunate to have inherited his father's extensive collection of photographs of early Invercargill. But buildings need people in them to bring them to life and here again he has been fortunate to have inherited his father's records of the early descriptions of the town by the pioneers of Invercargill. Here is Bishop Harper's account of a most disturbing night in the first hotel in Invercargill and Sherwood Roberts' delightful story of the house warming parties at Invercargill's first two hotels. Later comes the tale of a famous character in the early town, the 'Black Doctor', who was neither black nor a doctor. Then there are the stories of how the fire brigade suffered the embarrassment of burning its own fire station to the ground; the collection of over 1,000 'Birds, Beasts, Insects etc', in Andrew McKenzie's pie shop, which was the very beginnings of the Southland Museum; Todd's auction market, where for many years town and country have met to auction and recycle their second-hand goods; the crisis that hit Invercargill when it voted to be 'dry'. (Publisher).

Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. This copy is like new. Hall-Jones writes of the arrivals of the early Maori and later the Europeans, the navigators, sealers and whalers, in the southern part of New Zealand. In doing so he takes us to the places where they first made landfall and shows us the visible evidence that survives there today including: ? Dusky Sound - the remains of Cook's observatory of 1793. Also the relics of the first two European houses in NZ, the first shipbuilding and the first shipwreck. ? Spit Island, Preservation Inlet - the site of two Maori battles in the 1780s. ? Cuttle Cove - site of the first whaling station in New Zealand. ? Codfish Island - first European settlement in southern New Zealand and now a sanctuary for the very rare kakapo. In visiting these historic places the author makes full use of the original firsthand descriptions of Dr Edward Shortland, Bishop Selwyn, Captain Stokes, Commissioner Mantell and Chief Surveyor Thomson, whose journals are important treasures in our history. The text is liberally illustrated with some 200 photographs, including a priceless collection of Maori taonga (treasures) in the Southland Museum. Other photos of historic objects include: ? Greenstone Mere ? The first building in Invercargill ? A Benz benzine driven three-wheeler ? Takahe (Notornis mantelli ? Old whalepot at Fortrose ? Tuatara ? The Resolution alongside Astronomer Point ? Raising one of the Endeavour's cannons ? Hei-tiki (Publisher).

A Very Good copy. This booklet was one in a series that was published to help fund the maintenance and upkeep of the Old Governor's Mansion or "Old Capitol" in Prescott, Arizona. The series featured local histories of Yavapai County, Arizona. Published by the Prescott Evening Courier for Sharlot M. Hall. There are four main features in this pamphlet. The first is a poem by John S. McGroatry, a California poet, historian, and playwright, titled, "The Rough Riders." McGroatry's poem was read aloud at the unveiling of the "Roosevelt Rough Rider Equestrian Statue of Capt. William O. 'Bucky' [or, Buckey] O'Neill," also known as the Buckey O'Neill Monument, on July 3, 1907. The next feature is a brief biographical account ("Captain O'Neill and the Arizona Rough Riders") by Sharlot M. Hall about the life, character, and achievements of William "Buckey" O'Neill. Hall begins his account by with the early life of O'Neill and continues to describe O'Neill's many occupations and his eventual service as a Rough Rider. Hall's account concludes with a brief synopsis about the Buckey O'Neill Monument in Prescott and Solon Borglum, the sculptor of the statue. The third feature in this booklet is an essay ("The Rough Rider Monument") by Annie Campbell Jones that gives more details about the Buckey O'Neill Monument and elaborates upon the sculpture's artistic qualities. The fourth and final feature includes a printed version of a poem by Joseph L. C. Clarke that was dedicated to O'Neill and read during a reception held on March 17, 1905 in New York City for President Theodore Roosevelt and a brief article that recounts the time when Solon's older brother and fellow sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, saw Solon's O'Neill sculpture for the first time in Prescott. Gutzon called his brother's sculpture a "marvel." William Owen "Buckey" O'Neill (1860-1898) was an American newspaper editor, journalist, court reporter, politician, Sheriff and Mayor of Prescott, and a member of the Rough Riders. The Rough Riders was the nickname for the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry, a regiment that was called into service in 1898 (and disbanded that same year) for active duty in the Spanish-American War. The regiment also earned the nickname, "Roosevelt's Rough Riders," because Theodore Roosevelt served as their lieutenant colonel. O'Neill became Captain of Troop A in the regiment. He served in the Battle of Las Guasimas and the Battle of San Juan Hill in Cuba. O'Neill was killed in the Battle of San Juan Hill after being struck by a Spanish bullet.
