The hospital's 100 years of history is here recorded agains the background of local and national events: an eight day bush fire, early and late epidemics, local body and parliamentary elections, health legislation, the effect of three wars, advances in medicine, and always the Waimate community's concern for the sick and aged in its midst." -- Inside front cover. |
