documentary heritage
  • Description

    "This is the second edition of Whites Pictorial Reference of New Zealand, with new picture and informative material brought up to date. [...] The changes in the decade following 1950 have been nothing short of remarkable and this new Reference, so complete, reveals as nothing else, the recent and continuing era of progress and prosperity.

    Skylines of cities have changed; progressive housing development and the increasing establishment of new manufacturing industries and the expansion of the old have transformed many outlying districts. New towns have come into existence and works projects completed, necessitating the present publication containing over 100 pages more than the original volume."--preface.
