Bateman Illustrated History of New Zealand: Expanded Third Edition

In this third, revised and expanded edition of Illustrated History, noted historian Matthew Wright brings New Zealand's turbulent and exciting past to life, tracing our journey from the arrival of Polynesians to discovery by Europe, exploring New Zealand's dramatic colonial past, the impacts of the world wars, the era of the pavlova paradise, the Rogernomics revolution, and the dramatic impacts of Covid-19. Nearly 600 paintings, maps, sketches and photographs from the collection of the Alexander Turnbull Library highlight New Zealand's journey from past into present.
