Lot Details
Sampson Low, Marston, Low & Serle, London 1874. iv, 288pp, blue cloth, foxing, general wear, titled on spine "LIFE IN NEW ZEALAND", 1879 prize-label tipped in on endpaper. This appears to be a reissue of the original sheets, though it has a frontis and gilt edges. This is the edition listed by Bagnall 245. The book was first advertised in New Zealand at a price of 6s., then from 1880 at 3s.6d., which is most likely this reissue.
