Description
The commissioned Te Whare o Rehua Sarjeant Gallery: A Whanganui biography by Edmond, published by Massey University Press, is a lively history. It reveals much about the politics and history of a small New Zealand provincial city; as its swings between conservatism and being one of the country’s most progressive. The political tussles the gallery finds itself embroiled in will strike a chord with many in other centres.
