BEEKEEPING IN NEW ZEALAND
By T. S. Winter
Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries Bulletin 267

155 p. 1980 reprint. $8.95 plus 85c p & p

Though fundamental successful beekeeping is the same the world over, the varying seasonal conditions and the variety of nectar sources in different areas mean that the beekeeper must study local conditions and adjust his methods accordingly. Three factors govern success in beekeeping—locality, management, and the right strain of bees. This excellent book covers all aspects of beekeeping in text, photographs, and illustrations.

BLUE WATER RATIONALE
The Naval Defence of New Zealand 1914–1942 by I. C. McGibbon.

446 p. 1981. Illustrated. $45 plus $3.60 p & p

For twenty years the strategic basis of New Zealand’s defence policy was “the main fleet to Singapore” strategy—the theory of a properly defended Singapore Naval Base to which adequate British Naval forces would be dispatched to defend the Empire East of Suez. In the event Singapore fell to the attacking Japanese forces on 15 February 1942. This book, then, is essentially a study of why New Zealand placed reliance on an unsatisfactory strategy, which was always admitted to be second best to that in which a battle fleet was permanently based in the Pacific.
