Links is a fascinating history which explores the relationships between transport and New Zealand society. Five forms of transport have dominated in different eras of New Zealand history, interwoven with social and economic developments of the time. Travelling though these ages of the waka, sail, steam, motor and the jet, this book surveys the different forms of transport, the impact of each on society, and the factors which shaped its development.
