Requests:  0 Summary:  "In 1915, 160 Niuean men joined the New Zealand Expeditionary Force as part of the 3rd Maori Reinforcements and set sail to Auckland and then Egypt and France. Most had never left the island before, or worn shoes before. Most spoke no English. Most significantly, they had no immunity to European disease. Within three months of leaving New Zealand, over 80 per cent of them had been hospitalised and the army authorities withdrew them. Margaret Pointer became involved in research to trace the lost story of Niue's involvement in World War I while living on the island in the 1990s. The resulting book, 'Tagi Tote e Loto Haaku: My Heart is Crying a Little', was published in 2000. Her research has continued since, and 'Niue and the Great War' contains much new material together with new photographs. This ... story has now been set in a wider Pacific context and also considers the contribution made by colonial troops, especially 'coloured' ones, to the Allied effort"--Back cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H 940.39526 Po Non Circulating Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.39526 Pointer Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 940.39526 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList
