NEW ZEALAND STATESMEN
Sir-I hope that Dr. Scholefield will consider W. Downie Stewart’s Suggestion that he devote a separate volume to each of the twelve premiers dealt with in his Notable New Zealand Statesmen. It is a remarkable fact that we have no satisfactory life of Mr. Seddon. But I would like to see Mr. Stewart himself write the life of his hero Atkinson. We know far too little about the struggles of this brave man. Mr. Stewart’s political and financial experience should enable him to treat Atkinson’s thankless task with sympathy. Such a volume should form a welcome addition to his excellent life of Rolleston and life of Sir Francis Bell.
