In Australia apart from sympathetic deviations in accordance with section 4 of the Constitution there was little opportunity for flexibility. The quality of that book however was such that it had served well." - <i>Preface</i> from<i> A Prayer Book for Australia: For Use Together With the Book of Common Prayer 1662 and an Australian Prayer Book 1978</i> Broughton Books hardcover

The author's explorations resulted in the discovery of twenty-five rivers not previously shown on the maps and two small lakes; he examined the hydrography of lake Taupo, traced the sources of four of the principal rivers of the colony - the Whanganui, Waikato, Whangaehu, and Manganui-a-te-Ao - ascended Tongariro (7300 feet) and examined its active crater, ascended Mount Ruapehu (9000 feet), the highest peak of the North Island; ascended the Kaimanawa Mountains to an altitude of 4000 feet, examined the flora and collected some specimens of Alpine plants. This is a highly illuminating account with valuable description of the region of Lake Taupo, the Rangipo tableland, the Kaimanawa mountains, ascent of Tongariro and Ruaoehu, the Manganui a-te-Ao, hot springs of Tongariro, source of the Whanganui, and valley of the Waipa.
