TAILIEUCHUNG - STATION LIFE IN NEW ZEALAND

These letters, their writer is aware, justly incur the reproach of egotism and triviality; at the same time she did not see how this was to be avoided, without lessening their value as the exact account of a lady's experience of the brighter and less practical side of colonization. They are published as no guide or handbook for "the intending emigrant;" that person has already a literature to himself, and will scarcely find here so much as a single statistic. They simply record the expeditions, adventures, and emergencies diversifying the daily life of the wife of a New Zealand. | STATION LIFE IN NEW ZEALAND By Lady Barker. 1883 Contents Preface.

These letters their writer is aware justly incur the reproach of egotism and triviality at the same time she did not see how this was to be avoided without lessening their value as the exact account of a lady s experience of the brighter and less practical side of colonization. They are published as no guide or handbook for the intending emigrant that person has already a literature to himself and will scarcely find here so much as a single statistic. They simply record the expeditions adventures and emergencies diversifying the daily life of the wife of a New Zealand sheep-farmer and as each was written while the novelty and excitement of the scenes it describes were fresh upon her they may succeed in giving here in England an adequate impression of the delight and freedom of an existence so far removed from our own highly-wrought civilization
