  • About the Book
  • In this fresh account of one of the 20th-century’s great New Zealanders, Matthew Wright approaches Bernard Freyberg the man rather than the more widely known figure of a military leader. What took a humble immigrant child in Wellington to become a hero in two wars, friend to literary giants and politicians, very private father and husband, and very public Governor General? Freyberg: A Life is the most accessible biography on ‘Tiny’ Freyberg yet, with numerous black and
    white photos.
