Paperback. Zustand: Good. After a family tragedy, Theodore De'Ath moves to Otago to live with his grandparents. He becomes fascinated by the Underworld, reading the Inferno, Paradise Lost and Faust. When war breaks out in Europe, unlike his peers, Theodore is not swept up with the fervour to enlist, but when conscription comes in 1916 he is obliged to join the New Zealand Division in France. Although expert on Hell in literature, it is not until confronted with the reality of war that he understands its true meaning. Soon he has to survive as a deserter, risking court martial and a death sentence. The Life of De'Ath draws on historical events: New Zealand military involvement at the Western front, anti-German sentiment during World War I, and the New Zealand soldiers who were shot for desertion between 1916 and 1918. At its heart, though, is the story of a young man going against the tide of social and family pressure, and struggling to express his feelings for Elizabeth Paterson before it's too late. 244 pages. …

Remorse and bewilderment are engaged in the face of so much contemporary displacement and global cruelties.

Paperback. Zustand: New. "Mark Derby does justice to the spectacularly farflung radical and reactionary lives and the larger still legends of Arthur Desmond in the only way possible. He gives us a settler capable of siding with indigenous people and a muckraker on fire against wealth and privilege. But he equally shows a man, and eventually a persona, best known for his worst words, whose self-promotions and transnational bigotry remained connected to former commitments while tragically betraying them. This is a thoroughly engaging work of historical detection and discernment." - David Roediger, Professor of American Studies and History, University of Kansas. 68 pages. …

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Jacket Issued. 2nd Edition. A very good clean copy. Crossed out inscription. Old picture-postcards of Wellington strike a soft spot because many of the views are recognisable despite the hundred-year gap, offering a glimpse of a half-familiar past. The charm and distinctive look of these pictures comes from their delicate colouring. They started life as black and white prints and were transformed by skilled European printers.…
