The frontispiece Exploring Party (1849) from an original crayon drawing by C. Clarke in the Mitchell Library, Sydney, shows Sir George Grey and party crossing a swamp at Matamata, North Island. Thanks are due to the Committee of the Mitchell Library for permission to reproduce this drawing. Lake Waikaremoana (p. 54) is from a photograph by H. Farmer McDonald. The map of the North Island (p. 62) was drawn for this survey by W. G. Harding of Wellington. The Matakitaki Valley (p. 68) is from an original water-colour painting by Sir William Fox in the Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington; painted on 20 February 1846, this work was described as being 'In the Aghonby, or Matukituki Valley—looking into the Otapawa' (Buller district). The sketch map of the Southern Lakes (p. 114) was redrawn by W. G. Harding from a rough tracing of W. B. D. Mantell's map showing his coastal routes in 1848 and 1851–2 and C. J. Nairn's route in January 1852. The Hollyford Valley (p.144) is from an aerial photograph by V. C. Browne. Lake McKerrow and the sea are shown in the distance. The sketches Mount Victor and Okuru Valley and The Ark and Andy Glacier (p. 176) are from originals by Charles Douglas in the William Wilson collection, Turnbull Library. The map of the South Island (p. 188) was drawn by W. G. Harding.
