About

This book traces 150 years of the Christchurch Club, one of New Zealand’s oldest and most influential gentlemen’s institutions.

Ogilvie charts its origins among Canterbury’s pastoral elite, the evolution of its membership, and the social rituals that defined club life from the colonial era onward. He blends architectural history, political context, and anecdote to show how the Club mirrored the city’s fortunes—surviving fires, depressions, shifting social norms, and the gradual broadening of its once exclusive culture.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and illustrations. Includes compliments note from General Manager, dated 18/11/2005.
