Half zine, half book, half pamphlet, An Historical Overview of Lambton
Harbour is a light but rigorous exploration of the history of the
Wellington Harbour from pre-colonial times to nowadays. Described by the author as a "fact sheet for the newcomer" D J Pyle's austere writing
sternly drives the conversation towards the darker, bloodier sides of
our collective history with an exclusive focus on the events that
happened on Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Packed with archival images, this book is a modest invitation for historical curiosity and refrains, always,
from providing a definitive answer.
