Description

A major industry in the northern part of New Zealand's North Island from the 1840s to the 1910s was the felling of mighty kauri trees. This book contains approximately 80 photos of bushmen at work as well as the means used to transport the felled logs and sawn timber: horses, bullocks, flumes and bush tramways. 48 pages.
