Books for Readers
The books below are available to readers who would like them.
After the successful "book fair" of last month we are offering more books this month. Send a message with the title of the book/s you would like and we'll post them to you and send an invoice for the postage.
We endeavour to see that every one who applies gets at least one book they would like. Last month the volume on Parihaka was popular and as there was just one copy, some of you were disappointed.
