First edition hardcover published by Reed, New Zealand, 1954. 174 pages and a few photo plates. Constantine Dillon served as civil & military secretary to Sir George Grey and was thus well placed to comment on domestic and political affairs in this critical period of New Zealand history. An enthralling treasure trove of insight and ultimately tragedy revealed in this unique correspondence. In good unmarked condition. 

First edition 1954.

Cloth, spine and binding all good. Has neat and clean dustjacket. A lovely copy of this extremely scarce collectible edition.
