glimpse into our past.

with photographs, text, maps, and charts to illustrate our nineteen
forest parks, perhaps unrivalled for diversity and interest anywhere
else in the world.

THE NEW ZEALAND WARS
By James Cowan
Vol. I, 466 p. Vol. II, 633 p. $69.50 plus $4.80 p & p

edition has a new and perceptive introduction by Michael King and
in addition the original seven page index has been replaced by a
substantial and comprehensive index. This 1983 edition is called a

alterations and improvements on the original.

KIWIFRUIT CULTURE

Told through prose, verse, extracts from newspapers and diaries,
and policemen’s recollections, the book takes the reader from those
early colonial days to the modern police force of today. This inex-
pensive and easy to read history is a valuable aid for teachers and
a source of continuing interest for children.

THE SURRENDER AND OCCUPATION OF JAPAN
Edited by Robin Kay
DEPARTMENT OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS
1782 p. 1982. $75.00 plus $4.80 p & p
This is the second of a series of three volumes of documents on
New Zealand’s external relations: the first, ‘The Australian - New
Zealand Agreement 1944’, this volume, ‘The Surrender and
Occupation of Japan’ which covers six divisions of the period,
selected by topic but dealt with chronologically within topics, and
reveals the growing awareness amongst those responsible for a New
Zealand policy of what New Zealand’s interest actually were; the
third volume, ‘The ANZUS Pact and the Treaty of Peace With
Japan’, not yet published, will show something of the new order
of things in the Pacific and the difficulties in the role of a small,
though articulate, power in the formation of what in fact were Great
Power policies.
