Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1st. 174 pages, illustrations (some colour); 21 x 28 cm. Images selected from the collection of the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Light shelfwear to wraps, age toning. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by special arrangement. Profusely illustrated. "The twentieth century could be called the century of the image. When George Eastman invented the first point-and-shoot camera just over a hundred years ago, the ability to make images came within the reach of anyone. Photography quickly became commonplace. But as well as being a hobby or a habit, it's also a craft, a profession, and an art form. It's often banal, but sometimes profound. Advertisers use it to persuade us, artists to reveal the unexpected. A Century of Images presents a new approach to New Zealand's history -- probing the hidden side of our identity through images, using a hundred years of photographs to investigate who we are and who we have been." - Publisher Size: Oblong.

Soft Covers. Condition: NF. No Jacket. Photos, Art, Drawings, Diagrams, Maps (illustrator). 1st. New Zealand, as an island nation is, and always has been, dependent on the sea for its international communications. Vital to this has been those who manned the ships that have brought the produce it needs and carried the exports that provide its wealth. In early times the sea also provided trade and passenger links on all its coasts. This excellent study of NZ seafaring over the first century of the country's development explores an area little covered in the multitude of nautical books with NZ emphis and content --- the life and work of the ships crews in both the age of sail and of steam. Atkinson, a professional historian, has divided his work into eigh chapters --- Canvas and Coal (which examines work at sea); A Murderous Occupation (health and hazards); Songs and Stories (lore of the sea); Three Groans For the Skipper (control and conflict); Unity is Strength (seafaring unionism); On the Beach (the waterfront) and The Brotherhood of the Sea (crew culture.) Through these the author builds a graphic picture of all aspects of seafaring, a unique way of life and one which contributed so much to the development of NZ. Atkinson's comprehensive text dispalys his deep knowledge of his subject and is complemented by a magnificent collection of b/w illustrations, mainly photographs, but also art reproductions, drawings, diagrams, graphs and maps. Publisher Te Papa Press is the imprint of the Museum of New Zealand at Wellington, first edition of 2001, 172 pages including list of abbreviations, bibliography, glossary and index, illustrated in b/w throughout. Pictorial card covers with flaps at front and rear are NF, ditto the text block, no inscriptions.
