Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men of Mark of New Zealand Although New Zealand must be spoken of as still in its immaturity; the time has arrived when a brief book of biography of men who have already done good service in public life may be made a matter of interest to a large number of people throughout the Colony. The design of the present publication is to point out - to show at a glance in the form of short biographical notices - who have distinguished themselves politically, officially, or as enterprising and energetic colonists in New Zealand. In this attempt to place on record the acquirements and services of conspicuous men, past and present, connected with the history of New Zealand, many omissions will probably be noticeable. The desire of the Editor has been to put forth a sober chronicle of facts, and to make up a roll of the men who have made their mark as colonists. This is the scope and object of the present publication; and although such notices will in many instances be somewhat brief, all sources of information have been utilised to make them accurate.

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With the Lost Legion in New Zealand Every Johnny not a professional novelist has, I suppose, some reason besides making money when he sits down to write a book, for, as far as I can see, there is deuced little pleasure to be gained by the author while occupied in doing so, especially if, like myself, he should have passed some forty years of his life on the frontiers of the Empire, and, with the exception of writing an occasional letter, has never, during that time, taken a pen in his hand. My reason is that during the last three or four years, since broken health and bad luck drove me back to civilisation, such as it is in England, I have frequently been knocked end-ways by the woeful ignorance of all classes of Englishmen, not only of the history of the various colonies that form the Empire, but also of the struggles of the men in acquiring and holding the same. Again I have noticed no one ever gives the colonial irregular troops the least credit of having fought and suffered in the Imperial cause, nor does anyone in this country seem to be aware of the debt the Empire owes to the men of the Lost Legion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Defenders of New Zealand: Being a Short Biography of Colonists Who Distinguished Themselves in Upholding Her Majesty's Supremacy in These Islands No one can doubt the mental capacity of the Maori, and had it been possible to educate them and inculcate habits of sustained industry, they might by this time have altogether cast aside their savage habits and associations. It IS true the missionaries have effected much good, but the unfortunate divisions amongst ourselves have not only prevented the gradually-awakening mind of the Maori from receiving fixed and decided principles, but have nearly rendered it impossible to convert any heathen nation to Christianity.
