Description

Secondhand. First published in 1980. This is a copy of 1997 reprint.


Ghost Towns is a comprehensive and lively look at those towns throughout the country which either no longer exist or of which very little remains. Crammed full of historic photographs this book is a window on New Zealand's colonial history. In particular it covers gold mining towns of the South Island and the Coromandel Peninsula, but also details long forgotten coal mining and timber towns throughout the country.
