A History of Otautau

Here is the history of the South Island's Otautau from its origins as a stop-over for weary travellers to its development as a  communications centre, a timber town and rural service centre.

What emerges is not just a record of a small rural settlementlike so many others throughout New Zealand, but stories of personal endeavour, individual enterprise and community spirit which enables the community to thrive. And all this despite the tragedies the community endured.

This record of overcoming the double bane of fire and flood is, then, a tribute to the people and the town itself.
