In 1990 those living on Chatham Islands/ Rekohu/ Wharekauri faced crisis. Annexed to New Zealand by a London proclamation, the Islands had experienced 150 years of New Zealand control. Years of muddlement, some good intentions, financial waste exploitation and theft, and failure to deliver democratic rights and basic infrastructure. The after-effects of Rogernomics had produced a government decision to “walk away”. Such infrastructure as existed would be abandoned, with the Islanders left to save themselves, or fail and leave. How could it have come to this? The first part of this book details the improbable constitutional history of the Islands to 1990. It includes gunship visits to enforce rule; support of Maori for Tohu, Te Whiti, and Parihaka pacifism; a revolt where the magistrate’s authority crumbled to nothing; and many more remarkable events. In 1990, Islanders rose to the challenge of their new independence from Wellington. Their independent community co-operative, the Chatham Islands Enterprise Trust, soon flourished. Today it operates electricity, ports, shipping, and other companies; uses a portfolio of fishing quota to support on-Island fishers, and supports private Island businesses. The second part of this book tells how this was achieved. This book will be welcomed by those interested in these or any islands. Equally, those wanting to know more about the most curious parts of the history of government in Aotearoa New Zealand, or just all who enjoy a story of improbable success.

Classic Style and Cozy Comfort for Every Season
Size: 4T, Color: Bristol
I bought the Levi’s Girls and Baby Trucker Jacket to add a versatile layer to my daughter’s wardrobe, and it has quickly become a favorite for both casual outings and cooler evenings. The denim feels soft yet durable, and the structured fit gives her a stylish look without restricting movement. I’ve paired it with dresses, leggings, and jeans, and it works perfectly for school, playdates, and family outings. The button closures are sturdy, and the classic design holds up to frequent wear and washes without fading. My only small note is that it runs slightly small for her age, so sizing up ensures she can grow into it, but the timeless style, quality, and comfort make this jacket a wardrobe staple.

Summer, Winter, dressy, casual and good quality!
Size: Medium, Color: Alanis, Size: Medium, Color: Alanis
Well this was a hit. Super good quality. Firm fabric that holds it shape wash after wash. My daughter wears it w a variety of outfits but it is her go to jacket to grab on the way out the door. We live in Florida and it's perfect to take along for transitions of sundress into colder air-conditioned movies, church etc. It went everywhere with us on the cruise. My daughter is 11 but more of a size of a 9 year old. The fit is slightly large but perfect to fit her now... and hopefully into our mild winter. It's the lighter colored jacket on the brunette.

Great Jean jacket
Size: Medium, Color: Alanis, Size: Medium, Color: Alanis
This jacket is very cute and looks exactly like the pictures. The denim and style are classic Levi’s and it goes with just about everything. The only downside is that, like most Levi’s denim, there is very little to no stretch. I would definitely recommend sizing up, especially if your child is between sizes or plans to wear layers underneath. Daughter typically wears an 8 and this jacket is a 10-12.
