Review: "This work is the 'reflection' of the exhibition of '60 years ago' which is being held in a number New Zealand towns and cities between July 2005 and March 2006 to celebrate the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between New Zealand and France. It draws together articles that look back on the establishment of diplomatic relations from an historical perspective and offers, thanks to eye-witness accounts and official archival documents, new insight into the richness of our relations"--Back cover note.
