ABOUT
The stories of the twenty-eight New Zealand men who have been awarded the Victoria Cross from 1864 to 1945.
In the years since the award was first created by Queen Victoria during the Crimean War, twenty-eight New Zealanders have won the Victoria Cross for "some signal act of valour or devotion to their country. They were men from many different walks of life - office workers, farmers, regular soldiers, engineers, carpenters, professional men - but all with one common denominator - not just supreme courage, but the ability to take swift decisive action in the face of extreme danger.
Well illustrated with monochrome images and drawings throughout.
