Effort and Enterpprise

This 400 page book  opens up a fascinating view of the people and places that are part of everyday life as well as detailing what has happened over the last 150 years to make the Tikorangi District what it is today.

In his Foreword, Professor Sir Richard Faull said

“In this very first compiled history of Tikorangi, Peter has woven the personal stories and reminiscences from the pioneer and more recent families around the historical facts, records and significant events of the bygone days—and provided this excellent, comprehensive and detailed record of the 'life and times' of Tikorangi.”
