Description

An engaging pictorial tour which compares old and modern New Zealand. Historical and contemporary photographs with detailed captions bring to life a cross-section of social and economic history and reflect the changing character, appearance and fortunes of cities, towns and communities from the 19th century to the present day. John McCrystal's whimsical and informative text traces the transitions and transformations through times of prosperity, war and depression, the rise and fall of industries and changing fashions on transport, commerce, architecture, social behaviour and apparel.
