Presented to both Houses of Parliament by Command of His Majesty. March 1917. Cd. 8477. From Wikipedia: The situation of World War I prisoners of war in Germany is an aspect of the conflict little covered by historical research. However the number of soldiers imprisoned reached a little over seven million for all the belligerents of whom around 2400000 were held by Germany. Starting in 1915 the German authorities put in place a system of camps nearly three hundred in all and did not hesitate to resort to denutrition punishments and psychological mobbing; incarceration was also combined with methodical exploitation of the prisoners. However the captivity organized by the German military authorities also contributed to creating exchanges among peoples and led a number of prisoners to reflect on their involvement in the war and relation with their homeland. Soldiers were not the only ones made prisoner during the war; civilian populations were also impacted. Historian Annette Becker has extensively studied this aspect of the war. After the invasion the German Army started by taking hostages first of all the towns' leading citizens. Several invaded countries were affected by civilian deportations: France Belgium Romania Russia etc. 100000 were deported from France and Belgium. From 1914 both male and female civilians aged 14 and over from the occupied zones were forced to work quite often on projects related to the war effort such as the rebuilding of infrastructure destroyed by fighting roads rail tracks etc. In short order the civilians began to be deported to forced labor camps. There they formed the Zivilarbeiter-Bataillone civilian workers' battalions and wore a distinctive mark: a red armband. Becker indicates that their living conditions resembled those of the prisoners - that is they were harsh. The hostages were sent to camps in Prussia or Lithuania and some of them remained prisoners until 1918. Like the military prisoners civilians were subject to exchanges and a bureau for the repatriation of civilian detainees was created at Bern in 1916. At the end of the war civilian prisoners formed an association the Union nationale des prisonniers civils de guerre. His Majesty's Stationery Office paperback

Foolscap folio viii 246 pp. edges uncut; bound in half crimson morocco by Sangorski and Sutcliffe original printed wrappers bound in at the end. Detailed report of New Zealand affairs from April 1850 to August 1851 providing an overview of this pivotal era in New Zealand history marking a transition from early unstructured settlement toward a more organized Anglican-led colonial identity and the first steps toward self-governance. Governor George Grey was under immense pressure from the Settlers' Constitutional Associations while this period also saw the arrival of the "First Four Ships" in Lyttelton in December 1850 and pressure from the newly formed Canterbury Association to create a "slice of England" in the South Island complete with a structured social hierarchy and a strong Anglican Church presence. Of special interest are reports for the introduction of Maori representation in government and parliament presentations from Queen Victoria to various native chiefs the acquisition of lands by the New Zealand Company and the settlement of pensioner emigrants in New Zealand. .
