A compelling biographical profile of one of New Zealand’s most dynamic political figures, David Lange, Prime Minister captures the meteoric rise and early governance of a leader who redefined the nation's political landscape. Written by Vernon Wright, this work provides an intimate look at Lange’s life, drawing on interviews with his friends, family, and the Prime Minister himself to trace his journey from his formative childhood years to the intense challenges of his first dramatic week in office. Illustrated with photographs from both public archives and Lange’s own family collection, the book offers a grounded, humanizing perspective on a man often remembered for his sharp wit, human warmth, and the pivotal anti-nuclear policies that would define his premiership. For those interested in 20th-century political history, the complexities of the New Zealand Labour Party, or the private man behind the public persona, this 1984 profile serves as an essential and highly readable account of a transformative era.
