Overview

Excerpt from Brighter Britain! Or Settler and Maori, in New Zealand, Vol. 2 of 2 Northern New Zealand has two special products, which are peculiar to the country, and found no where else. They are kauri timber and kauri-gum. When speaking of Northern New Zealand in these sketches, I do not thereby intend the whole of the North Island, as has been previously explained; I mean that northern part of it which may be more properly designated The Land of the Kauri. The kauri grows throughout all that part of the old province of Auckland which lies to the north of S. Lat. 37 Degrees 30' or It does not grow naturally anywhere south of the thirty-eighth parallel of latitude, nor, I believe, can it be induced to flourish under cultivation south of its natural boundary line.
