Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Some dulling down to the cover and light marks as well as a little wear to the spine tips. Tiny amounts of foxing, otherwise a tidy copy. The son of early Scottish immigrants, Robert Noble Adams (1849-1914) was born in Dunedin and began working for the Otago Daily Times and Witness Company in 1865. His particular interest was British history, his writings sometimes being coloured by his adherence to the belief of Anglo-Israelism. A Baptist and staunch prohibitionist, he was a steadfast defender of his point of view. Adams naturally turned to his company of employment for publication of his first novel. Written and published for Otago's 50th jubilee, The counterfeit seal is a tale of early Otago settlers, interspersed with romance and deceit. The narrative features early historical figures including Reverend Thomas Burns and Captain William Cargill. Seller Inventory # 030342
