A First Year In Canterbury Settlement: With Other Early Essays is a book written by Samuel Butler and first published in 1914. The book is a collection of essays that chronicle Butler's experiences during his first year living in the Canterbury settlement in New Zealand. The essays cover a range of topics, including the natural environment, the people he encountered, and the challenges of establishing a new community. Butler's writing is characterized by his wit, humor, and keen observations of human behavior. The book also includes several other early essays by Butler, including The Deadlock in Darwinism and Lucubratio Ebria. Overall, A First Year In Canterbury Settlement is a fascinating glimpse into life in a new settlement in the late 19th century, and a testament to Butler's skill as a writer and observer of the world around him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
