Second hand.

Bainham, in the southwest corner of Golden Bay, is the gateway to the Heaphy Track and the Kahurangi National Park. Settled by goldminers, the isolated community grew as the sawmills came and the land was cleared for farming. This book is about the goldminers, sawmillers and farmers, the settlers who packed supplies into the hills and the families who had the tenacity and foresight to develop the profitable dairy farms of today.
