9 pages, including a full-page sketch map. Plus photographic plate and a fold-out diagram. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a fascinating expedition report on one of the most beautiful parts of New Zealand - the south western extremity often known as Fiordland. Most of it was then difficult to access, incompletely mapped or unexplored, and geologically but little known. Among subjects discussed include a brief history of exploration and mapping, topography, vegetation, the valley-system, and coastal plateau. Accompanied by diagrams showing Dusky and Breaksea Sounds, Milford Sound, and Tutoko Peak, plus spectacular photographs, some depicting Homer's Saddle, Hall Arm in Doubtful Sound, Grave Talbot Pass, and Hollyford Valley.
