This history illustrates how entrepreneurship and innovation transformed the New Zealand economy in the 19th century-an otherwise bleak period in international economics. Drawing on case studies and historical evidence, this analysis explores the typical characteristics of these businessmen-"What qualities did they display? What role did they play in economic expansion?"-and discusses how small, local firms took advantage of industrial giants' protracted movements.
