註釋Description: These letters concern the Canterbury Association. They were written by Captain Joseph Thomas, who was sent out by the Association to find and survey suitable land for a new colony in New Zealand. The land he decided upon was purchased from the New Zealand Company. These letters detail his findings during the surveying, covering issues such as the harbour for bringing in migrants, the climate and the suitability of the land for agriculture and development.
