Men Came Voyaging by Colleen M. Sheffield Helensville Borough Council, 20/- ‘Men Came Voyaging’ is a full history of the town of Helensville and its immediate district. It was written by the late Colleen M. Sheffield, the talented Maori writer who was among those who were killed in the tragic accident on Brynderwyn Hill last February. Written in celebration of Helensville's centennial year, the book is the product of intensive research. It covers the entire history of the district—the formation of the earliest forests and sandhills, the complicated Maori history, the changes brought by the Pakehas—with breadth of imagination and a painstaking respect for detail. —M.O.
