"As John Castle's thoughful, entertaining text makes clear, Wellington is a city dominated and shaped by its environment. Its streets, its commercial centre, its residential. areas, all have had to come to terms with the realities of wind and sea and hill. It is a city of contrasts, a city whose character is difficult to catch with brush or pen. But in this book, John Castle has succeeded triumphantly with both. H. i s paintings evoke almost every mood of this often mercurial city, and his text is an informative, often humorous, history. For the Wellington resident this book will bring a pleasing rediscovery of his native city; to the visitor it will be both. a d e lightful introduction and a worthy memento of New Zealand's capital." Several small and tiny dints on bottom edge of boards and one on fore-edge of rear board, three small air bubbles under cloth on rear board, light foxing and brownin gon . top of b ook, minor browning and soiling. Dust jacket has light edge wear/wrinkling,small closed tear with creases, several tiny chips light rubbing, light browning. Very Good-/Good+.
