Note 2: Book Smales' Trail - Gideon Smales By John Steele
Gideon Smales- his extraordinary story first edition 2011, Colour and Black and White Plates, 272 Pages,
Some say the Smales Family, one of England's most prominent shipping families of the 19th Century, helped build the ship which eventually became Captain Cook's Endeavour. One of that family, Gideon Smales, came to NZ as the Treaty of Waitangi was being signed and as a young Wesleyan missionary soon found himself negotiating with Te Rauparaha in the prelude to the savage Wairau Affray. Later he stood toe to toe with Te Rangihaeata as the fearsome Maori chief threatened to chop off his head. After service in the Hokianga, Nelson and Porirua, Smales established a thriving Maori mission in Aotea before finding himself caught up in an ongoing dispute with his missionary chiefs and suffering an ignominious suspension. Relocating to Auckland, he became on of the province's largest farmers, establishing a landmark farm and gardens at Hampton Park, East Tamaki. He endured the deaths of two of his wives and 11 of his children. He was a fearless traveller, accomplished writer and speaker. This is the vastly engaging story of the rich and rewarding life of a significant NZ pioneer
