Description

A Lasting Legacy: A 125 years after William Davidson pushed for frozen meat to be exported and its effect on New Zealand farming today. Edited by Colin Williscroft. 'The shipment of frozen meat that left New Zealand's shores on February 15, 1882, has arguably shaped the country's future more than any other single event since. While it was not the first refrigerated shipment of meat from the Southern Hemisphere, by pure hard work, determination and attention to detail, it was easily the most successful of its day and was duly recognised at that time as a truly groundbreaking event. New Zealand today is founded on the foresight and nerve of those who made it happen.'
