Australasian & Pacific history : Second World War |
| A landmark book exploring New Zealandâ s second world war effort through over 800 photographs, many never before published and many live-action shots taken by those at the front. The images span North Africa, Europe and the Pacific, as well as action on the water and in the air â every battle and theatre in which New Zealanders fought. The text by one of New Zealandâ s leading military historians places the images in context. Chapters on prisoners of war, the home front and New Zealandâ s role in Japan after the end of hostilities in the Pacific round out this rich visual account of a conflict that dominated all aspects of New Zealand life for seven years. |
