I like it. It's a bit dated (this is the (in part) updated version of a book that seems to be originally have been written in 2007 or so) in some things and it really needs a better editor (like, nope, what the description of the picture says is not what is shown in the picture; the footnote/citation numbers are sometimes big, sometimes small; there are some grammar mistakes in it) but it really gives a compact and interesting overview about New Zealand in the past and now. :)
