ABOUT
"Tavern in the Town" dispels a long-standing fallacy - that New Zealand hotels lack colour, tradition, and a tale that tingles.
To prove otherwise, the author, then a young Auckland journalist, travelled the country twice - from the back blocks of Northland to the Bluff, stopping at the hotels of his choice, interviewing old identities, chasing threads of long-buried tales, and digging deep into newspaper files and library archives.
Well illustrated with monochrome images and drawings.
