Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : As New. This copy appears to be unread and has light dulling down to the jacket. This title is not meant to be an autobiography or a history, it is a bit of both. What the book depicts, is the psychological strength of New Zealand soldiers and soldiering in human terms, there is nothing which the well - trained and well - led Maori / Pakeha soldier combination cannot achieve. This has been acknowledged and documented by those who should know, our opponents and our comrades in arms. New Zealanders operate on the simple premise that there is no point in being second in the serious business of soldiering, and for this reason they will not accept inferior leadership or performance. Rennie has been quoted as saying that there is nothing as fulfilling as serving with New Zealanders in an atmosphere of mutual confidence and respect - and it is a relationship as unique as it is effective which is the measure in this book.…

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Maori in the Great War By James Cowan. Publisher: Willsonscott Publishing, Christchurch, 2011. Hardback with jacket, a little bumping to edges, no inscriptions, slight tanning to edges. Jacket has minor shelf/edge wear. Maori form a significant proportion of the modern New Zealand Army, and Maori officers have achieved the very highest commands, their unique culture is deeply embedded in its tradition and daily routines; celebrated by Maori (indigenous) and pakeha (non-indigenous) soldiers alike. The exploits of the 28th (Maori) Battalion in WWll - peerless in attack - are well-remembered. Not so well known is the major Maori contribution to the Allied cause in the Great War. Maori were quick to respond in 1914. Over five times as many as the specified contingent of 500 men volunteered, and that number of places was allocated on a tribal basis.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. Soldier Sailor and Airman Too By Woody Woodhall and Paul Shackleton (Photographs by) Hardback, with jacket. Minor shelf/edge wear, minor tanning, scuffed corners on jacket. 304 pages Published by Willsonscott Publishing, 2008 ISBN: 1877427268 photographs 24.5 x 18 centimetres 'SOLDIER, SAILOR AND AIRMAN TOO is a comprehensive history of the life and career of Group Captain A.B. Woodhall. His story provides a unique slice of British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Airforce history, spanning both World Wars and finishing in New Zealand. Not only can his story be read as a biography of an extremely accomplished and heroic figure, this book also provides an extensive historical insight into the myriad events he was involved in over this period of time. From beginnings that would be enough to deter most - being severely wounded to the point of paralysis as a sniper at Beaumont Hamel 1916 and subsequently evacuated back to England; Soldier, Sailor and Airman Too covers Woody's military career through both wars, touches on his flying with Douglas Bader and volunteering to make an emergency drop of an artificial leg to Bader when he was downed and taken prisoner in Germany. Working as a controller in the Great Battle of Britain, Woody was awarded the OBE and given investiture by the King and Queen at Buckingham Palace as well as being promoted to Group Captain. Woody encountered some strife in the bombings of Duxford and Tangmere, where he was Group Captain, but went on to establish a radio listening service in Malta resulting in foxing the German Controller! Woodhall writes extremely well and gives exceptional attention to detail.…

Hardback. There are many memorials to Australia’s war dead; among them are two permanent reminders to the Australian participation in the New Zealand Wars. The entrance to the Anglesey Barracks in Hobart is dominated by a tall column memorial to the members of the 99th Regiment that sailed from Hobart to take part in the First New Zealand War (1845-1847). On their discharge after the war the Tasmania veterans of the 99 Regiment who finally settled in Hobart regularly met at the Anglesey Barracks memorial for their annual commemorative service and reunion. The second memorial is more directly significant to this study and it is frequently the cause of curious questions raised by visitors. It stands in a foremost sight dominating its pleasant garden surroundings designed as a memorial triumphal arch in the centre of Sydney’s Burwood public park. The stone arch has chiselled on its exterior the countries where Australians have fought for Empire to Peace Keeping. At the top of the list is the inscription ‘The New Zealand Wars’ The reference no doubt is a recollection within the Burwood historical memory of those young men who in the mid nineteenth century sailed from the district and who died or returned from their service for the Empire and the New Zealand War. 2011. First edition. A fine, unmarked copy in a fine d/w. Scans available if required.…
