On the Road: The Car in New Zealand

Graham Hawkes

GP Books, 1990. Hardback, 160 pages, illustrated.

Inscription inside in pen. Also light foxing on title page, otherwise excellent condition.

Traditionally near the peak of car-owning nations, New Zealand has made the car an institution, ensnaring almost every aspect of our lives. It has literally shaped our environment and affected our architecture and our fashions.

The early Fords, Buicks and Pontiacs of the 1920s - the Vauxhalls and still more Fords of the 1930s and 40s. To the 1950s and the Vauxhall Wyvern and the Velox, the Morris Minor, a string of Holdens and what some consider to be the apogee of motoring in this country - the Mk I and Mk II Zephyrs. This book chronicles these cars and the eras in which they were driven, showing the magic appeal of the best of them, and noting how others missed the peculiar quality to evoke nostalgia and happy memories.
