It is not a political, economic or military history; rather it explores what life was like during the war years for ordinary people living under the New Zealand flag. Stevan and Hugh Eldred-Grigg explore New Zealanders' hopes and fears, beliefs and superstitions, shortages and affluence, rationing and greed, hysteria and humor, violence and kindness, malevolence and generosity, to argue that New Zealand need not have involved itself in the war at all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugh Eldred-Grigg, Stevan Eldred-Grigg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0947522239\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780947522230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Otago University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.70w x 1.30d","brand":"Hugh Eldred-Grigg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44890606403839,"sku":"9780947522230","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db7f5179-7bea-4979-a12a-a14e30a2d382.jpg?v=1709739509","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/phoney-wars-hugh-eldred-grigg-9780947522230","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
