John Webster's Maori Journal, 1847

documentary heritage
  • Description

    "In its original form this journal exists as a pair of handwritten notebooks in the manuscript collection of the Auckland City Library. For historians it has been a useful reference tool, but for those who live in Hokianga it is so much more: a lively account of our harbour as it used to be, and a window into the lives of many of our forebears."--preface.
