Book for an event


Michael Field, banned in four Pacific countries including Fiji, has been a newspaper and agency reporter for 35 years, mostly covering the South Pacific. A former Agence France-Presse correspondent, he now reports for Fairfax Media and has been a commentator on Radio New Zealand National's 'Nine to Noon' for over a decade. His previous books include a landmark study of Samoa's independence movement, the Mau, which led New Zealand to formally apologise, and an account of Fiji's coups. Often in India or the South Pacific, Field's home base is Auckland.
