Item description from seller

Nelson: A History of Early Settlement by Ruth M Allan. Publisher: Wellington, A. H. & A. W. Reed, 1965. FIRST EDITION. SCARCE. Very good hardback with jacket. Boards have a little rubbing, creasing and bumping, otherwise excellent condition with no inscriptions. Jacket is chipped and rubbed at edges with a closed tear, spine is dulled down. 458 pages with 20 pages of b/w plates. When Mrs Allan died in 1958 her work was incomplete but under the guidance and editorship of J. C. Beaglehole. Nancy Taylor and Pamela Cocks were able to use Ruth Allan's notes to complete chapters on the German settlements and the exploration of the district so that the work could be published for the Nelson City Council in 1965. On page 29 Ruth Allan makes reference to Captain James McKenzie Maclaren who settled on 150 acres of land on the east side of Croiselles Harbour in 1838 and so became Nelson's first white settler. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK. All books are sent with free courier postage within New Zealand.…
