Author talk with Felicity Goodyear-Smith

This is a free, illustrated talk on her book about Dacre Cottage, built in 1855.

Felicity presents an overview about Dacre, his family and associates, the history of Dacre cottage and the Weiti block, and community efforts to protect our historical and natural heritage. The main focus of the talk will be on the fascinating tale of Dacre and Gordon Davis Browne and their ill-fated spar station at Mahurangi.

The book will be available for sale with all proceeds going to the Dacre Reserve Management Committee for continued maintenance of the Cottage and Historic Reserve. See https://veritypress.com/
