- Information found: t.p. (Gerald McGhie) cover p. 4 (Gerald McGhie gives a fascinating and insightful account of some of the highlights of almonst 40 years as a New Zealand diplomat, including his two postints in Moscow: first during the Brezhnev years of the Cold War; and second from 1990 when he witnessed the dramatic events that led to the fall of Gorvachev, the rise of Boris Yeltsin and the collapse of the Soviet Union, which saw him become New Zealand's last Ambassador to the Soviet Union and first to Russia. Earlier he worked twice in the South Pacific: in Samoa where the close connection with New Zealand added a special, friendly dimension to the posting, and later in Papua New Guinea.)
