Synopsis
The first comprehensive history of New Zealand literature, this volume includes chapters on the novel, poetry, and the short story, as well as sections on drama, non-fiction, children's literature, popular literature, and the history of publishing, patronage, and literary magazines. While it features major authors, this history also contains information on little-known authors and forgotten periods in New Zealand's literary history, providing more comprehensive information on the subject than has ever appeared in a single volume before.

Review
"This history should be considered the standard reference work in its area."--Choice
"Will remain the essential reference work on New Zealand literature for years to come."--American Reference Books Annual 1992
"It is a volume of impressive editorial cunning, a wide-ranging survey of course, but one that attempts to locate the qualities of particular writers within these large contours of 'New Zealand writing'."--New Zealand Books
