New Zealand in the Making

"New Zealand in the Making a Survey of Economic and Social Development" is a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of New Zealand from its early colonial beginnings to the early 20th century. Written by J.B. Condliffe, a distinguished economist, this work provides a detailed examination of the economic forces and social policies that shaped the nation. The book delves into the impact of land settlement, the development of the pastoral industry, and the unique labor experiments that gained New Zealand international attention.

With a focus on both historical context and statistical data, the text offers invaluable insights into the challenges of nation-building in a remote corner of the British Empire.
