Books that Built New Zealand

Four New Zealand writers and thinkers nominate the locally-grown work that they think has done the most to create our country, to inculcate an idea of ourselves and to nurture a notion of New Zealandness. It could be a novel, it could be a guide to gardening, or even the owner's manual of a Mark III Zephyr, but, without a doubt, they'll be the Books That Built New Zealand.
