About

The history of Harry Wigley and Mount Cook Ski Planes.

Harry Wigley was the elder son of Rudolph Wigley, who pioneered motor transport to the Hermitage, Mount Cook, designed a before-its-time tractor, and took to active flying at an age when most men were thinking of retirement. Harry Wigley greatly admired " the old man" and followed his example of vigorous and unorthodox pioneering. He was educated at Christ's College and in the cockpits of a variety of small and temperamental early aeroplanes, this is the story of his flying life.

Well illustrated with monochrome images and maps.
