The Official History of New Zealands Army Chaplains

Men of Faith & Courage

By J Bryant Haigh. Published 1983

Hardcover with dust jacket

216 pages with some photos

Official record of the work of the New Zealand Army chaplains from the New Zealand Land Wars through the Boer War and the World Wars, followed by Korea, Vietnam, Malaya and Borneo. Detailed and well illustrated, the text not surprisingly highlights the work of the service in both World Wars where the Chaplains gave not only their all for God, King, and Country, but also their lives. The chaplains went wherever New Zealand forces served and never shied away from the front line, doing much work to rescue and aid the wounded as well as their "core duties" of tending to the spiritual well-being of the troops. The text contains much detail including Roll of Honour, lists of Decorations, and Nominal Rolls of those who served
