The Double Rainbow : James K. Baxter, Ngati Hau and the Jerusalem Commune order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 40.00 each
Paperback
Author: John Newton
Customer Order Reference:
'When Maori and Pakeha do these things together the double rainbow begins to shine.'

In 1969, New Zealand's best-known poet, James K. Baxter, moved to Jerusalem on the Whanganui River and established an intentional community under the mana of the local hapu, Ngati Hau. The Jerusalem commune proved a magnet for disaffected and damaged young people.

As the setting for Baxter's celebrated late works, Jerusalem Sonnets, Jerusalem Daybook and Autumn Testament, it quickly became the country's most famous hippie community, as well as a media byword for the idealism and excess of the emerging youth culture. But what was life really like at Jerusalem, beyond the popular stereotypes? And what did it mean, for Ngati Hau, to be deluged with long-haired strangers and with the media attention which followed them?
Here, for the first time, events are reconstructed from the point of view of James K. ... more

NZ$ 45.00 each
Paperback
Author: Rob Hopkins
Customer Order Reference:
Around the world, societies are facing the prospect of a future with dwindling oil reserves, an unstable climate and unpredictable food production. What are the ways we might move away from our dependency on oil, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and still enjoy a good quality of life?

This practical book explains how we can 'transition' from fossil-fuel based communities to ones that are more self-reliant and generate less carbon emissions. The Transition Handbook shows how such changes will result in a greater development of local food, local economies, local water harvesting and energy generation - and so create more sustainable communities in the longer term. The Transition Handbook includes detailed accounts of Transition initiatives in the UK (where ... more
