Part Three (of four volumes) - a comprehensive history of magic in New Zealand from the founding of the country, covering the years 1920 - 1929.
"Many books in the genre of magical history are presented as biographies or even chronologies, so it is a pleasure to see a book that is contracted on a different principle. Reid's focus on the magic and magicians that appeared in a particular country allows his book to also tell a larger story - the rise of New Zealand as a newly formed colony in the British Empire and the events that shaped it during the first decades of its existence." - The Magic Circular, Journal of the Magic Circle, London
