ABOUT
A rich pictorial and historical survey documenting the historic gold towns, mining methods, relics, and colorful local characters that shaped the major gold rushes across New Zealand's North and South Islands.
From the chaotic tent towns of the Otago diggings to the deep quartz mines of Coromandel and the wild, rain-soaked terraces of the West Coast, this book captures the frantic energy, incredible engineering feats, and colorful characters that shaped a nation.
The striking cover features the iconic, preserved overshot waterwheel and stamper battery at Mitchell’s Gully Gold Mine near Charleston—a perfect testament to the historic relics documented inside.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images.
