Local Description

This is a full scale biography and something more. Based on family papers and Turnbull's correspondence with a wide circle of friends, it illuminates not only one life but a segment of New Zealand's society. In design and production the book is meant to commemorate a distinguished bibliophile. Its numerous plates are taken from portraits and photographs or illustrate items from Turnbull's original collections.
