  • A Simple Nullity?

    The Wi Parata Case in New Zealand Law & History

    par David V. Williams ...
    When the New Zealand Supreme Court ruled on Wi Parata v the Bishop of Wellington in 1877, the judges infamously dismissed the relevance of the Treaty of Waitangi.

    A History of Two Open Societies: New Zealand and the United States

    par David Hackett Fischer ...

Australia lost 600 men in the Boer War, a three-year conflict fought in the heart of Africa that had ostensibly nothing to do with Australia.
