Publisher's Synopsis
The Story Of The Otago Church And Settlement (1887) is a historical account of the establishment of the Otago region in New Zealand, written by Charles Stuart Ross. The book details the founding of the Otago settlement by the Free Church of Scotland in the mid-19th century, and the challenges faced by the early settlers as they sought to establish a new community in a remote and unfamiliar land. Ross provides a comprehensive overview of the social, economic, and political factors that led to the settlement's creation, as well as the key figures involved in its establishment. He also explores the cultural and religious influences that shaped the community in its early years, and the ways in which it evolved over time. The Story Of The Otago Church And Settlement is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of New Zealand, and provides a fascinating insight into the challenges and triumphs of early colonial life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
