The Companies Acts of New Zealand were last year consolidated in the Companies Act 1903 a text of which is here printed. We regret that owing to exigencies of space we are unable to deal at length with this interesting volume which suggests much matter for comparison and must content ourselves with congratulating the author on having produced a well-planned and so far as we have tested it a careful and exhaustive treatise on his subject.": Juridical Review 16 1904 452.

1890232384New Zealand 1890. 1 vols. 3-3/8 x 2-1.2. Mounted to card. Slight circular abrasion in lower right corner of image. 1 vols. 3-3/8 x 2-1.2. The 2nd King of the Maoris: a Rare Carte-de-Visite. A rare care-de-visite portrait of Tawhiao c. 1822-1894 the 2nd Maori King who ".left a legacy of religious principles from which his people would draw a future dream for Tainui: the rebirth of a self-sufficient economic base supported by the strength and stability of the people. Native trees and foods symbolise strength and self-sufficiency in his statement: 'I shall build my own house the ridge-pole will be of hinau and the supporting posts of mahoe and patate. Those who inhabit that house shall be raised on rengarenga and nurtured on kawariki.' During Tawhiao's exile Waikato people had reflected and focused on the powerful symbols of the King movement. The man and the vision became united and part of the traditions and knowledge of the people. The vision is recounted and passed on to later generations at tribal hui where it continues to be discussed and debated." - www.nzhistory.net.nz. unknown books
