Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. A very good clean copy. "It was.a night of terror. Houses swayed, water pipes burst, crockery smashed and walls cracked. Many people rushed outside as chimneys crashed to the ground and it was miraculous no-one was harmed." With eye-witness accounts and newspaper reports, Jan McLaren has created, 60 years later, a vivid word picture of the June 24 1942 earthquake that literally changed Wairarapa overnight. A Night of Terror traces the history of Wairarapa and Wellington region earthquakes and the reasons for them. It recreates the dramatic events of June 24 and the aftermath in Masterton, the other towns in the valley and Wairarapa?s countryside. There are the frantic efforts to remove dangerous ornamentation and demolish damaged buildings as the aftershocks continued. There are the attempts to repair and rebuild at a time when the outcome of World War Two was still very much in the balance. A Night of Terror is illustrated with a unique collection of photographs, very few of them published before.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. This scarce copy has some light rubbing to the board edges and two repaired closed tears to the jacket. He was all things to motor racing - a man whose prodigious gifts earned him a place in history. In 1959 he became the world's youngest and New Zealand's first F1 Grand Prix winner - a record that would stand for almost 50 years. Tragically, on 2 June 1970, less than 11 years after his first Grand Prix success, Bruce Leslie McLaren died at the wheel of his car, on the test track. Packing more into those glorious days than seemed possible, in an extraordinary twist of fate, his fame reached greater heights after his death, as the motor-racing company he named and created became one of the most prestigious, vying with the likes of Mercedes, Renault and Ferrari. While McLaren began as a driver, he was also a visionary, who became an exceptional engineer, constructor, designer and inventor. Now, 40 years after it ended so abruptly, his life and achievements are celebrated as never before, in THE BRUCE MCLAREN SCRAPBOOK. Heavy volume for outside NZ. Please as for a postage quote before ordering. Signed by Author(s).…
