520 _aThe Cold War brooded over the world for half of the 20th century but its effects on New Zealands outlook and life have had little serious examination. Seeing Red steps into this gap with twelve accounts of the varying effects of this period on our country, from Ian McGibbons description of its origins to the fresh look by a Californian professor at the ANZUS dispute of the 1980s. Ian McGibbon and John Crawford, both military historians of long experience, have edited the papers delivered at a Cold War conference in 2007. The contributions offer unexpected perspectives, from describing the 1949 referendum as the only occasion the public have had a direct say in the nations defence policy, to seeing the ANZUS quarrel as the conclusion by New Zealanders that the Cold War was over. The range of contributors, including three from the United States, Canada and Australia, ensures that the perspectives are varied and the analysis is authoritative. Gerald Hensley -Wheelers
