The Plot to Subvert Wartime New Zealand (Paperback)

This true story details the biggest—and most extraordinary—hoax New Zealand has ever seen. Perpetrated by former prison inmate Syd Ross and eventually commandeered by a notable public figure, the 1942 plot took advantage of New Zealanders’ fears of a Japanese invasion, when the terrible struggle for world domination by the Allied and Axis powers could have gone either way.
