Ray said: > I happened across this early New Zealand history/story/outline/reminiscence etc. made available free online. > > http://www.electricscotland.com/history/nz/poenamo/index.htm Great! It's a wonderful read - I have my own copy here, bought from a second-hand book shop a few years ago. If you're not familiar with the title, "Poenamo" is John Logan Campbell's memoir, originally written for his children, about his journey from Scotland to New Zealand as a freshly-graduated doctor working as a ship's surgeon, his time in the Coromandel living with local Maori, and then he and his business partner (William Brown) moving on to Auckland just as the town was being established in 1840. Campbell and Brown set up an enterprise on an island in the Hauraki Gulf, which Campbell refers to as Motokorea - we know it today as Brown's Island. I recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in early New Zealand history. If you don't like reading online, try your local library and ask about an interloan if they don't hold a copy themselves. Thanks for alerting us, Ray! :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Howard -- Kaiwaka, Northland, New Zealand http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wendyh65/ <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/%7Ewendyh65/>
