Regular Soldier - A Life in the New Zealand Army
Endeavour Press, Auckland, 1986, 1st edition
Although Regular Soldier is is a first-class military autobiography, it is more than the facinating account of one man's Army career. This is also a book about the strengths and achivements of New Zealand soldiering - particularly through its unique Maori/Pakeha combination - and the rapport, camaraderie and humour it can promote. Regular Soldier also tells, for the first time, the full story of the formation, tarining and operations of the New Zealand SAS. All those with a military interest, all who are facinated by recent history and politics and all who relish a satisfying autobiography will find plenty to enjoy in this lively, forthright and exciting book by one of New Zealand's best-known soldiers...
