Hi Tom,
 
I'd second Paul's comment. I have a collection of New Zealand
beekeeping manuals and books back to the early days of settlement.
Although I'm missing some of the early material, and some periodicals,
Matheson's book is really the only current material other than the
local beekeeper magazines.
 
There is still quite a bit of the older material available through
antiquarian bookshops. E-mail me privately if that is of interest.\
 
Best wishes,
Anton
