HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY
LAN MULGAN and Guy Scholefield are again retracing the footprints in New Zealand history, and their new series of talks are now being heard from 1YA and 3YA three times a week.
They will start from 2YA on Sunday, April 21, with broadcasts once weekly, and from 1YZ on Monday, April 22, with broadcasts three times a week. In an introduction to the earlier series, Mr Mulgan explained that these talks were planned to tell listeners where the historic places are and how they can be reached, and in that way to encourage holidaymakers to visit them. Where these places are marked by monuments, these are described, together with the events which they commemorate. Places mentioned in these talks include the Wellington city memorials, the early missions and their martyrs, the beginnings of Hokianga, the Church Hill at Nelson, Hongi’s Track, the landmarks of Foveaux Strait, Tainui’s voyages and resting-place, and churches erected by Bishop Selwyn.
