MACGIBBON, I. C. Blue Water Rationale: The Naval Defence of New Zealand 1914-1942. xxi, 446p., bibliog., illus., index. Wellington: Government Printer, 1981. ISBN: 0477010725.

A fascinating study showing the constancy of New Zealand policy over 30 years. The last quarter covers the European war years until the end of 1941 when Japan unceremoniously destroyed all the plans of the empire, which were based on holding Singapore.
