Acerca del autor

Donald Jackson Kerr is special collections librarian at the University of Otago, New Zealand. His doctoral thesis, from which this book is partly drawn, looked at Grey's strategies as a collector of rare books in the colonies he governed, and at the network of associations which he established with many of the prominent booksellers of his times. Dr. Kerr was formerly rare books librarian at the Auckland Public Library, which houses New Zealand's Grey Collection. He is the editor of "Enduring Legacy: Charles Brasch, Patron, Poet, Collector" and the author of "The Smell of Powder," a book on the history of dueling in New Zealand.
