Title: History of Tauranga harbour & port
Description: "... At first the idea was to record the activities of the Harbour Board but upon delving into records it soon became clear that this story should encompass the whole harbour from the first days of shipping ... This story starts with reference to the Maori prior to the advent of Europeans and ends more or less in the early 1990's with some overrun into Port Company days after 1989. The full story about the Port after 1990 is one for the future when someone else can record its progress ..." -- p. 5
