Foreword

This volume of the Journal of the Nelson Historical Society deals with some of the well-known coastal features of the Nelson Province. It may be regarded as a special Maritime Issue!

Publication is inadvertently later than intended, but the Journal has not, since its beginning in 1955, been published annually but it would be desirable to do so. It is hoped to publish the next issue, No. 6 completing Volume 2, after Easter next year. Articles will be on Nelson historical topics of a general nature.
