Book Description
For European refugees arriving in the 1930s, New Zealand was in many ways a haven. It wasn't all easy: they came from a continent rich in culture and history to a small isolated country with little social diversity. The immigrants found prejudice and suspicion as well as a place they could one day call their own. But the difficulties were 'a small price to pay' for freedom and survival. A Small Price to Pay tells the story of the refugees' flight to New Zealand, and what they found here. Based on interviews with thirty-two former refugees, this book is the first to document in detail their experiences.

A Small Price to Pay
Author: Graham Broad
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774823658
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
We often picture life on the Canadian home front as a time of austerity, as a time when women went to work and men went to war. Graham Broad explodes this myth of home front sacrifice by bringing to light the contradictions of consumer society in wartime. Governments pressured Depression-weary citizens to save for the sake of the nation, but Canadians had money in their pockets, and advertisers tempted them with fresh groceries, glamorous movies, and new cars and appliances. Broad reveals that our "greatest generation" was not impervious to temptation but rather embarked on one of the biggest spending booms in our nation's history.
