Description

From the early days of the Maori to the Victorian colonists and today's immigrants. New Zealanders at work and play, at war and in peacetime . . . Shirley Maddock presents a panorama of New Zealand's social history through this carefully selected collection of paintings, drawings, etchings, ephemera and photographs, many never previously published. Her text is crisp and stimulating, meticulously researched and annotated with a simple numbering system which unifies the words and visual images. There is also an index. The result is a book that can be enjoyed as a continuous narrative, dipped into at random or used for reference and study.
