  • Kupu whakaahua

    "This is a first hand account of a sea voyage from Gravesend to Auckland in 1877/8 written and illustrated by Bertha and Mary Dobie, the author's great-great-aunts. The report emanates from a diary which gives a remarkable and vivid account of everyday life on board ship in the 1870s, and it will to appeal to everyone interested in the social life of that period, and in sailing ships and sea voyages."--back cover.
