Item description from seller

1873, London, William Hunt and Company, pp(iv) + 278 + (xvi), some pages uncut, folding black and white map, original claret cloth, gilt lettering on spine. Lady Mary Anne Barker was born in 1831 in Spanish Town, Jamaica, educated in England, and at age 21 married Captain George Barker of the Royal Artillery. He was knighted in 1860 for military services, but died shortly after. In 1865 she married Frederick Napier Broome, an Englishman who had emigrated to New Zealand, and, leaving behind her two young children by Barker, she embarked with Broome for New Zealand, where they ran a sheep farm. Her book Station Life sold well, and was followed by Station Amusements, and several others on various topics.
