About

Provides an indication that constructing a railway linking the NZ capital, Wellington, to the rich pastoral lands of the Wairarapa lying to the north, but over a range of rugged, steep, bush clad and difficult hill country battered by extremes of weather, including tempest scale winds, was no easy task. The author's account of the concept of the railway, its planning and surveying, its years of construction, are given detailed and comprehensive treatment in this fine book.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and maps.
