Item description from seller

A very close to fine copy, which is signed by the author. The book follows successive generations as they build and sustain the store through floods, the Great Depression, changes in the town’s industries and transport routes, and the Canterbury earthquakes. Alongside the business story, it explores the family’s close involvement in Kaiapoi’s civic and community life. A tribute from later generations to the store’s founders, it centres on family commitment, resilience and a tradition of fair trading that helped the business endure for nearly 150 years.
