Description

TitleIllustrated London News 1886 vol.89 page 114DescriptionA volcanic eruption at Mount Tarawera has destroyed New Zealand’s famous Pink and White Terraces and devastated the Hot Lakes district, burying Wairoa and killing around 100 people. The writer reflects on public indifference to distant disasters and avoids giving further detail to escape being labelled a bore about places others have never visited.Year1886Volume89Page Number114FormatNewspaper article
