ABOUT
Biography of Peter Wilson, who in 1841 he and his wife and one child arrived in New Zealand from Great Britain.
Wilson initially settled in Wanganui and later moving to New Plymouth where he was chief surgeon at the hospital. The book is based on his letters and diaries and apart from his medical duties he became involved in community affairs.
As a result his record reveals much about life in general for early settlers, medical matters and of the Land Wars in Taranaki. Lambert's biographical account put on record the work and other achievements of a previously little-known pioneer.
Illustrated with monochrome images, drawings and maps.
