Publisher's Synopsis
With six books now published, The NZ Series is a valuable non-fiction resource for general readers and schools, introducing complex subjects in simple, concise terms. In this seventh volume, award-winning Wellington-based author Philippa Werry recounts the stories and experience of migration to Aotearoa -- from the first Polynesian arrivals to the Dawn Raids, from the New Zealand Company to ten-pound Poms, from Dutch and Dalmatian refugees to today's Asian communities. Extensive illustrations, fact boxes and personal experiences bring to life an immigrant nation from a range of perspectives.
