This is a book for our times, a big and bold new general history of Aotearoa New Zealand, which takes the March 2019 Christchurch mosque killings as the starting point for telling a fresh story about New Zealand's past and present, and examining who we are, and why. The Prime Minister famously said after the shooting "This is not us." Belgrave asks, "Who is us?" Is the history of this country simply one of colonialism and white supremacy or is it about something so much better? Despite all the missteps and failures, is there something special here that we have all built together?
