The Weekly News was one of the success stories of New Zealand journalism. Famous for its bright pink cover, this magazine brought the events and the people of the country and the world to the towns and scattered rural hamlets of New Zealand and served to unite the nation as no other publication has done. Those Were The Days presents in this volume a social history of New Zealand in the 1930s as seen through its pages.

Poll: Do you go to live music gigs?
It’s “tough” running dive bars and speakeasies but a growing association is shaking up the New Zealand independent music scene.
These are the places where rising stars cut their teeth, members say, but they’re challenged by noise restrictions, alcohol licensing rules and the need to take on multiple tasks outside booking bands.
