Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No DJ as issued. 253 pages. This book contains 288 fabulous colour images of N ew Zealand maritime scenes from the collection of the Museum of W ellington City and Sea, and others, taken between the 1950s and 1 970s. This was the era when conventional cargo ships still plied the waters, and people headed overseas still boarded passenger li ners instead of aircraft. Included are large ocean going ships an d smaller coastal traders, ferries, service vessels, ports large and small, and wharf scenes redolent with the atmosphere of the t ime before containerization changed everything. Many of the ships are British, as can be expected in the period when over 40 perce nt of New Zealand's foreign trade was with the 'old country', but ships from several other countries are represented also.
