A SEQUEL IN PREPARATION.
Readers of Early Maoriland Adventures of James West Stack will be interested to know that there is in reserve a considerable amount of manuscript material, fully as interesting as that already published. A further instalment is now being edited for publication, under the title
"MORE MAORILAND ADVENTURES."
This volume will be preceded by an interesting description of the voyage from Sydney to England in the late 'forties; a brief account of Stack's residence in London; and his return to New Zealand in 1852 in the Slains Castle. Arriving at the Waikato Heads, he commences his work as a catechist under Dr. Maunsell. The story of his eventful life on the Waikato is of outstanding interest and importance, and brings us into contact with such notable figures of those times as Judge Fenton, Bishop Selwyn, the Ashwells, C. S. Volkner, Governors Grey and Gore Browne, etc. In a third volume Stack will tell the story of his work as a pioneer missionary to the Canterbury Maoris, including some racy stories of native life. This volume will also include Mrs. Stack's Journal of the 'fifties and 'sixties, which Bishop Williams considers in some respects even more interesting than Canon Stack's. For other information relating to this new material, see pages 37-39 of the present volume. Purchasers of Early Maoriland Adventures may, on communicating with the publishers or any bookseller, have copies of the first editions (limited in number) of the succeeding volumes reserved at 7s. 6d. each. No payment in advance is required. To those placing advance orders for Volumes II and III will be sent, free of charge, a large reproduction of an old Dutch Map of the early 17th century (before New Zealand was "on the map") and containing as an inset a map of New Zealand as charted by Captain Cook.

Books of Distinction and New Zealand Interest
Any three books ordered together will be sent post free.
New Zealand provides a fascinating field for the booklover. Its early history, its native race, splendid pioneers and missionaries, its natural wonders, all make it a country of which every New Zealander, and indeed every Briton, may well be proud. Nearly all the books now listed are first editions, of lasting interest, and likely to increase in value with the passing of the years. In almost every instance they have been entirely produced in New Zealand--and in no other part of the world could this be done better.
