John Carne Bidwill came out to Sydney in 1838 to represent his family's mercantile business. Finding that he had time on his hands he decided to make a journey to New Zealand with the intention of penetrating to the high mountains in the interior of the North Island. This is the story of that journey—that of the first white man to climb Mt. Tongariro and the attendant adventures associated with such. Intermixed is commentary on the botany of that part of New Zealand and the language of the Ma̅ori people. - Summary by Beeswaxcandle (3 hr 3 min)
