by New Holland Publishers, (Hardcover)
Lavishly illustrated with over 150 full colour and black and white historical and contemporary photographs, artworks and regional maps, Presenting New Zealand is a quintessential visual and informative account of how the country has developed in relative isolation into the independent nation that the rest of the world recognises today. Starting with the huge rifts of prehistoric times that tore it apart from the mass of Gondwanaland, to the arrival of the first Polynesian canoes, to the exploration and subsequent settlement by Europeans and to the conflict engendered by the ensuing cross-cultural encounter, to the country's modern-day social, economic and political achievements, Philip Temple's lively account explores the growth of this remarkable country.

Helen Ennis
Photography and Australia (Reaktion Books - Exposures)
by Reaktion Books (Paperback)
With its moving landscapes and famously independent cultural traditions, Australia is uniquely suited to having its national narrative told through visual documentation. Helen Ennis gathers here a selection of photographs that recount the story of Australia, and through this visual chronicle, she uncovers a distinctively Australian visual culture. The striking images featured in Photography and Australia, drawn from the National Library of Australia and other public collections, powerfully document the iconic sights of the rugged Australian landscape such as the imposing Ayers Rock, as well as documentary photographs, wilderness shots, post-mortem studies of bushrangers, and other images both quotidian and extraordinary. One of the leading photography historians in Australia, Ennis argues that the colonial experience is a central element of these visual testaments, and embedded within this experience are the tumultuous relations between white settlers and Aboriginal peoples.
