Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is the story of New Zealand's involvement in two forgotten wars, as seen through the personal accounts of the New Zealanders - both men and women - who were there. It is an unknown story of New Zealand's first significant contact with Asia and one which shaped New Zealand's understanding, as well as having a critical impact on the structure and role of the New Zealand Armed Forces for the second half of the 20th century.
