To the authors of New Zealand's histories (the pioneers in whose tracks I have laboriously followed), and especially to W. T. G. Airey, J. C. Beaglehole, J. B. Condliffe and to the memory of W. P. Reeves, this book is respectfully dedicated.  | |

Few New Zealanders would welcome the difficulties which might follow a substantial inflow of Asian immigrants, but a good many believe that it is time to relax the present exclusive policy; that, now aeroplanes and Asian nationalism have turned distant colonies and 'backward areas' into neighbouring states, it is time to think of being a good neighbour. (Zum Anzeigen anklicken. Warnung: Enthält möglicherweise Spoiler.)As the New Zealand Herald remarked in 1925, on the election of Gordon Coates to office as Prime Minister: 'All is yet molten, mercurial. There are more departures to make than precedents to follow. To have a history may be an old land's glory and safeguard: to make history is a new land's perilous employment.'
Epilogue. The search for identity. (Zum Anzeigen anklicken. Warnung: Enthält möglicherweise Spoiler.) | |
