Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. Revised edition. 292 pages. Dj worn and fadedFollowing Professor J.C. Reid's u ntimely death, Peter Cape was asked to revise this book for a new edition and bring it up to date. From the discovery of New Zeala nd in 1642 by Abel Tasman to the present day, there's been no lac k of discerning chronicles of its pioneering life and of the grad ual emergence of a distinctive society in New Zealand. With the d evelopment of a vigorous native literature, the New Zealand imagi nation, too, has revealed itself as a highly individual one. Draw ing generously upon both records and creative writing, J.C. Reid and Peter Cape have produced a wide-ranging anthology which gives a vivid impression of the country, its history and its people.
