ABOUT
In the first complete book ever to be published on the completion of the Main Trunk Railway to the centre of the North Island.
R.S. Fletcher traces not only the extraordinary acts of courage and endurance on the part of the surveyors and construction gangs when working through the rugged, mountainous terrain, but the complex political manoeuvrings in Wellington and in Auckland, and the delicate negotiations with Maori tribes whose ancestral lands were traversed.
Includes monochrome images and maps on end papers.
