"The history of our early hotels and breweries and the people who lived and worked in them is fascinating. Laraine's writing revives the bustling town that Patea was, bringing back to life in our minds the commodious wooden hotels with the oak-lined rooms, the rowdy bars, and the busy kitchens cooking up food for passengers off the Cobb & Co. coaches. This was a time of innovation, risk, prosperity and recession." -- page 3.
