Ian F. Grant’s widely praised two-volume history of New Zealand newspapers retails for $139.00, but is available to New Zealand Memories readers at nearly 30% less.
Lasting Impressions: The story of New Zealand newspapers, 1840-1920 ($69.50) was published in 2018; Pressing On: The story of New Zealand newspapers, 1921-2000 ($69.50) was published in late May this year.
The two books tell the story of the country’s newspapers, the men and women who ran them, and their considerable impact on New Zealand society during a 160-year period.
By 2000, the New Zealand newspaper market had changed forever – and in ways that put its very survival at risk. The second volume, Pressing On, is the story of how and why this happened.
