ABOUT
The story of the Waihi and district gold mines is a fascinating one, beginning with the discovery of the Martha Reef in 1878 and concluding with the closing of the Martha Mine in 1952, by which time gold valued at 28 million pounds had been extracted. Local historian Bert McAra tells the story of the Martha mine and the many others in the Waihi district in chronological order, the personalities of the mining days and of life on the gold fields.
Well illustrated with monochrome images and drawings.
