The Wild West Coast of New Zealand: A Summer Cruise in the Rosa (1889) is a travelogue written by Robert Paulin. The book describes the author's summer voyage along the rugged and untamed west coast of New Zealand in the late 19th century. The journey was made aboard the Rosa, a small sailing vessel, and took the author through some of the most remote and beautiful parts of the country. The book provides a detailed account of the author's experiences, including encounters with the native Maori people, visits to remote settlements and villages, and explorations of the region's stunning natural landscapes. The author describes the flora and fauna of the region, as well as the various challenges and dangers faced by sailors navigating the treacherous waters of the west coast.Throughout the book, Paulin provides vivid descriptions of the scenery, wildlife, and people he encounters, painting a vivid picture of life on the west coast of New Zealand in the late 19th century. The book is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, and a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of New Zealand.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
