Turnbull Library Record 2009

This edition of: the Turnbull Library Record marks the 90th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that. ended the First World War, and extends the Library's contribution to the government initiative to commemorate this, known broadly as Coming Home: Te Hokinga Mai.

War's wholesale destructiveness had left its mark. Its legacy continued to affect those with the misfortune to be labelled 'enemy aliens.' The dispossession of Maori was ongoing. The principle of Empire remained strong, as evidenced by the country's welcome of the lovesick Prince of Wales in 1920. New; Zealanders were listening to jazz and dancing the Charleston as the influence of American culture began to make its presence felt. Russian prima ballerina Anna Pavlova toured New Zealand in 1926 to a rapturous reception

The Record for 2009 profiles New Zealand society in the period following the First World War. It provides a summary of the significant activities and acquisitions in what has been a challenging year for the Alexander Turnbull Library. -

John Alexander Lee, 1936. Photographer: S. P. Andrew Studio (ATL ref. 1/2-043306-F)
