ABOUT
Commissioned to mark the centennial of the Mosgiel borough, this serves as an essential regional reference for the Otago district.
A comprehensive 1985 centennial survey detailing the social, economic, and cultural growth of the Mosgiel town and the surrounding Taieri Plain. Traces the region's history from early Māori occupation and 1848 European settlement through to the late twentieth century.
Explores the transformation of farming, the impact of local government, regional infrastructure, and the development of early churches, schools, and community organizations. Significant coverage is dedicated to local enterprise, including the historic Mosgiel Woollen Mills, alongside chapters detailing transport (cars, trains, and planes), wartime impacts, local art, and regional sports.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images.
