Chapter 8 is the most relevant, Tango, but overall a very good find. |

I live in the city of Brisbane, named after one of Wellington's Peninsular generals, Sir Thomas Brisbane. Asa the city was founded in 1823, not surprisingly, there are several Napoleonic place names: Wellington Point, Waterloo Hotel, Uxbridge Street etc. Mind you, most of the inhabitants would be unaware of this, believing the city, nicknamed "Brisvegas" was founded by itinerant American craps players. |

I tried to plan a Wellingtonian road trip based on this book, but actually theres not a lot to go on – especially as I already live near Picton! |
