Author of "The Generation Gap : unimportant people and the Parapara" published in 1973.
Foreword: "For the most part, "Unimportant People" is factual. It tells the story of how my grandmother, as a mere girl, accompanied her parents on a pioneering trek from Wellington up the west coast to the wide, lower reaches of the Manawatu river. She married the interpreter, Adam, a well-known figure in the early days of that district. D.W. "
