Sir Julius von Haast named the river after himself in 1863. The completion of a modern highway in 1965 has made this brief history topical and of interest to the whole of New Zealand. in this, John Pascoe has presented a human story of floods and privations, isolation and courage; it mirrors the search for prosperity, the relief works of the Depression, the impact of two world wars, nd the final triumph of surveyors, workmen, and engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1968 Hardback in good condition with dust jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lakeview Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45570064220339,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0445\/4347\/5861\/files\/DSC_1594.jpg?v=1781233206","url":"https:\/\/lakeviewpublishing.nz\/products\/147-the-haast-is-in-south-westland","provider":"Lakeview Publishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
