New Zealand Society at War

"This book conveys some of the complexities of a small land in a world war, by examining individual facets of New Zealand society. Its 18 investigations, researched and written by specialist contributors, of particular social institutions, associations and groups – including the rugby club, the pulpit, the union meeting, the voluntary association, civilian and military leadership, Maori, women, children, German immigrants, and pacifists – give us a richer, more detailed understanding of how New Zealanders thought and acted during the First World War."--Publisher information.
