Whaling and Sealing in Southern New Zealand

LLOYD ESLER

Written by popular author Invercargill naturalist, historian and teacher Lloyd Esler, this book tells of two great industries, whaling and sealing, which had a significant place in the history of southern New Zealand. This book draws information from many sources to tell that story. It covers as well a little of the conservation and biology of whales and seals and looks at evidence for the existence of a New Zealand otter.
