Sport and the New Zealanders A History.
View through CrossRef
A quick glance at the images of the dust jacket resulted in a sigh of, “Here we go again! Not another atypical one-sided historical text”. A genuine appreciation of the illustrations and respect for both authors’ in-depth research and analysis over a span of eleven years, evolved. I do question whether the collection of 24 photographs and 2 illustrations was inserted in an ideal location (150 to 151). To aid the reader’s understanding, it may have been more advantageous to insert the collection, as and when referred to.
