- 528p.
New Zealand's contributions to the Malayan Emergency and to the Confrontation with Indonesia were substantial (greater than in the Vietnam War) but often overlooked. This book describes both the involvement and the effect it had on the organisation and doctrine of New Zealand's armed forces in the second half of the twentieth century.
