The White Terraces

The White Terraces, Lake Rotomahana

James Anthony Froude, an English historian and travel writer, stayed with his friend, Sir George Grey, at Kawau Island in 1885. He drew the White Terraces a year before they were destroyed. His book Oceana was a positive account and travel guide that many New Zealanders took as an endorsement of the colony's beauty and uniqueness.
