ABOUT
Chronicles the significant expansion of Papakura—located in South Auckland, New Zealand—tracing its growth from a small, rural service town before World War II into a major suburban district.
The book starts in 1938, the year the area was officially designated as a Borough. A major catalyst for early development described in the book was the establishment of the Papakura Military Camp during WWII, which triggered a massive population and infrastructure explosion in the region.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and maps.
