The definitive and authoritative official history examining how New Zealand managed, funded, and sustained its domestic front during World War II. J.V.T. Baker masterfully details the unprecedented economic mobilization of the nation, tracking everything from industrial production, manpower regulations, and wartime rationing to the pivotal government decision to fund the war effort entirely from internal resources rather than overseas borrowing. Packed with statistical charts and archival photographs, this massive and highly prized volume is an essential cornerstone piece for collectors of New Zealand military history, economics, and WWII heritage.
