NEW. Hazardous Waters: The enterprising life of the good merchant James Reddy Clendon in early New Zealand by Barbara Gawith.
This book describes how Clendon arrived in New Zealand, the hazards of his trading years in the Bay, his activities as the first US Consul in New Zealand, the deal over his home at Okiato and the effect it had on his life, and his work for the new Hobson government.
Deeply researched and annotated, Barbara Gawith has written a fascinating account that adds an understanding of the hazards and trials of being a merchant in the Bay during the 1830s and beyond.
