The Wellington " Post " observes :— " Mr F. J. Moss M.H.R., has just written, and Mr 11. Brett, of Auckland, has published one of the most useful books which has yet been issued fiom the New Zealand press. It is o school history of New Zealand, and its 254 pages contain more information about the history of the colony than any other book we arc acquainted will). This history is compiled in an interesting and eminently readable ioim, and the greatest care seems to have been taken to verify facts and dates. Ileferonce is facilitated by a really good index. In some passages relating to the late Parliaments ly histoiy of the colony lr«ces of the author's own strong political viows may porhaps be detected, but on the whole he has done his wxik excellently and impartially.
