- Summary
- "Established just 12 years after Aotearoa New Zealand became a British colony, the nation's first public museum was integral to the civic infrastructure of the new administrative capital of Auckland. From the outset the Museum was established as an encyclopaedic collecting institution dedicated to the study of 'specimens illustrative of the Natural History of New Zealand ... also, Weapons, Clothing, Implements of New Zealand, and the Islands of the Pacific'."--introduction
