New edition available nowThis book, compiled by the Taieri Mouth Amenities Society, is based on the book Taieri Mouth and its surrounding districts, by Win Parkes and Kath Hislop, published in 1980. The original text is mainly unchanged, except for the addition of some 20 heritage photographs that have come to light.
This revised edition comprises Part One and Part Two. Part One is the complete original book, with updated information, presented in an enlarged format. Modern techniques for reproducing old photos have been used to retouch the 116 archival images, bringing a new clarity to the stories and images of the past. Part Two brings us up to the present day in a more pictorial style, with a collection of 123 photos, mainly colour, and stories from those who have more recently lived, worked and played in Taieri Mouth and its surrounding districts. These photos, memories and illustrations expand our awareness of times past and record some of what has happened since 1840 and, importantly what is happening in 2018. |
