A History of Tawa by B. Murray.

Publisher: Tawa Historical Society, 2014, First Edition. Very good softback, a little shelfwear, creasing and minor marks.

"A History of Tawa covers a period of more than five centuries. The opening chapter deals with the physical setting and the first inhabitants of the area. The remainder of the book follows a chronological path, noting the significant developments within the district since 1840. In particular, it chronicles such matters as the removal of the bush cover and its replacement by grass; the importance of the road to Wellington; changes in agriculture; the arrival of the railway; attempts at suburbanisation; the critical effects on Tawa of the Tawa Flat railway deviation and the motorway; the post WW2 boom in population; and the impact on Tawa of Johnsonville's and Porirua's shopping malls."-
