City at the Centre: A History of Palmerston North de Kerry Taylor

City at the Centre: A History of Palmerston North: City at the Centre: The History of Palmerston North

Editat de Kerry Taylor, Geoff Watson, Margaret Tennant
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 2020
Once a small town sited at Te Papaioea, a clearing in the bush that cloaked the Manawatu Plains, Palmerston North has always had big-city aspirations. Critical to its growth was the railway that runs through it, farming, and education. Originally settled by Rangitane, today Palmerston North is home to people from many parts of the world. Why they chose to come to the city, and what they did when they got there, is the subject of this richly illustrated and engaging history.
