ABOUT
Signed by Ruth Richardson, ex-Minister of Finance.
History of the New Zealand political party The National Party, that was founded in 1936.
Published to mark the 50th anniversary of the New Zealand National Party, the book acts as the first comprehensive, insider history of the party's formation, rise to power in 1949, and subsequent dominance in 20th-century New Zealand politics.
Gustafson examines how a liberal-conservative coalition successfully built one of the most effective mass-based, democratic political organizations in the Western world, balancing the principles of individual freedom and free enterprise.
The 407-page volume is highly detailed, featuring over 100 historical illustrations, biographical appendices of major party figures, and documentation of internal division and regional structures.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images.
