HISTORIC BAY OF ISLANDS By A. H. Reed, illustrated by John H. Alexander. A. H. and A. W. Reed. Reviewed by Katherine Lloyd. The appearance recently of Historic Bay of Islands by John H. Alexander and text by A. H. Reed will, I am sure, be welcomed by all who see it. There have been many publications of this beautiful part of New Zealand over the years and I consider this to be, of its kind, one of the best. There are one or two inaccuracies in the script—these I understand have been noted. Newcomers to this delightful and historic area look for something they can take away—something concise, arresting—something to make them enquire further—not too large, and reasonably priced. This seems to be the answer. The illustrations are immediately arresting—they are bold and decisive. The good print and paper make it easily read. The cover too is most attractive. I look forward to obtaining Historic Wellington which I feel sure I'll enjoy as much, and I trust these two are but forerunners of many others. ⋆ ⋆ ⋆
