Diggers' Story, Paperback / softback Book

Diggers' Story Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

These fascinating tales and reminiscences from New Zealand's West Coast's earliest pioneers were originally compiled by Carl Pfaff for The Diggers' Story, first published in 1914 to mark the 50th anniversary of the gold rushes that transformed this remote part of New Zealand.

Long out of print, the book has been thoughtfully edited and expanded for today's readers. This new edition features additional stories and information and is enlivened by black-and-white images and colour illustrations, many of them previously unpublished.

This compelling, richly illustrated record of the gold rushes is essential reading for anyone interested in the explosive and romantic history of New Zealand's West Coast.
