The history books tell us that about 550 New Zealand nurses went to World War One while other women stayed home, knitting, fundraising and looking after families and farms while the men were away. But many women went too ¿ as doctors and ambulance drivers, munitions workers and mathematicians, civil servants and servicewomen in British units, and in many other roles. They mainly paid their own fares and worked for very little. Some provided amenities for soldiers and others, and these have often been attributed to the military or men¿s groups. Make her Praises Heard Afar introduces women whose contribution to the war effort has been overlooked, telling an astonishing story with extraordinary range and depth of research. The title¿s use of a phrase from the national anthem invites New Zealand women to recognise that they were us ¿ 100 years ago. New Zealand women who have read World War One books by men and about men are ready to appreciate that women were there too. This book will appeal to a wide range of women ¿ particularly those interested in women¿s history, feminism and World War One. There is much interest from family members of these women and from young women. The book is written for a wide readership in simple, accessible prose. Jane is the author of a New Zealand Book Award winning biography of Ettie Rout, the New Zealand woman most associated in the public mind with World War One. She wrote a second book on Ettie in 2014, focussing on her wartime safe sex campaign, Ettie Rout: New Zealand¿s safer sex pioneer. She was co-director of the World War One Oral History Archive, and interviewed 85 veterans. She produced In the Shadow of War, with Nicholas Boyack, and in 2013 listened to the whole archive to produce An Awfully Big Adventure, telling the story of the war in the men¿s words, chronologically. She uses the chronological format for Make Her Praises Heard Afar, telling stories of individuals and groups through the war, using extended quotes when appropriate. There is expected to be wide interest in the book from the media as it upsets the generallyaccepted story and shows that New Zealand women have been left out of the national narrative of the war.

The future of man is unveiling within the will of God, within the close attention of his God, within the future edicts of The Lord— awaiting their time on Earth, within the panorama before the eyes and ears of man, within the future scope of man able and willing to consent. The future of man is dependent on his knowledge, is a measure of his wisdom, is the status of his freewill history, is his willingness to change when a journey is partially completed. The future of man is to receive a letter from God, is to receive the fare as set upon the table of The Lord, is to receive the love and honour due a compliant child of God, is to receive the welcome home extended to the prodigal sons of man. The future of man is within his destiny of choice, is within the family of God, is within the Garden of God, is within the creation of God. The coming letters to man are as in My fifth book of the End-time Psalms of God, are as in the time frame of disclosures, are as in the acceptance of the multitudes, are as in the preparedness of My people awaiting My return. The coming letters are about to hit the bookstalls of man, are about to become the centres of attention, are about to preside over discussions of a destiny, are about to resolve the significance of lightness from the darkness.

On a hot, humid day, Tristan Blake is sweating it out trying to hitch a ride past Kerikeri, up north. It is summer in New Zealand, 2030 - the temperature is rising, and Tristan is looking to get away from it all, after retiring from Peace-making army duty in the Middle East. An old red Holden Ute pulls up on the side of the road, with fishing lines strapped in the back, Maori priest, Rau Petera invites him on a ride to Ninety Mile Beach. Keen to fish, Tristan agrees, but once there they stumble across Joshua Davidson from Kaitai - who catches a record snapper with no bait. Somehow, Rau and Tristan find themselves driving Joshua on a once-in-a-lifetime road-trip down the centre of the North Island, toward the Beehive in Wellington. Joshua is reminding Rau of someone - he is finding a new kind of faith. But Tristan is being thrown into increasing confusion and dismay - as he comes to realise what he must do to end the growing threat of Joshua.
