The End of the Penny Section - A History of Urban Transport in New Zealand

Reed, 1973.

A well-illustrated history of urban tramway transport systems in New Zealand from the horse drawn days in the 1860s to 1964 when the last Wellington tram rolled into retirement. A social history as well as a transport one, as the trams were important to the development and expansion of major urban centres and vital people movers for about 50 years.
