A review by nathanjhunt
The Complete History of New Zealand in Less Than Two Hours by Peter Jessup
informative
fast-paced
2.5
My 56th book finished in 2023.
For something calling itself a history book, there was a surprising lack of history inside it.
Sure, I learnt some things from the book, but a lot of the stuff in here was very boring. I was disappointed at the lack of Māori history and early European settlement, which, I suppose, is what I wanted to know more about (and not sports / produce and income etc).
