Pictorial card cover, excellent clean copy, Illustrated with b&w photographs and maps, previous owners name sticker on first page, light cover wear ~ Making a Killing: A History of the Gisborne - East Coast Freezing Works Industry ~ this book charts the turbulent economic and social history of the freezing works industry in Gisborne and on the East Coast from the era of the sailing ship to the present. From 1889 to the late 20th century five local freezing works - Taruheru, Kaiti, Tokomaru bay, Waipaoa and Hicks Bay - flourished and declined, determining the course of the various communities dependent on them. This, then, is the story of those works, from sailing ships to steam power, from solo slaughtermen to sporting prowess, from monopolies to mergers, this book also taces the industry's technological shifts.
