Author: Jane McCabe Ed. Publisher: Otago University Press
In the early 20th century, 130 young Anglo-Indians were sent to New Zealand in an organised immigration scheme from Kalimpong, in the Darjeeling district of India. They were the mixed-race children of British tea planters and local women, and were placed as workers with New Zealand families from the Far North to Southland. Their settlement in New Zealand was the initiative of a Scottish Presbyterian missionary, the Rev Dr John Anderson Graham, who aimed to â€rescue’ and provide a home and an education for children whose opportunities would have been limited in the country of their birth. Jane McCabe is the granddaughter of Lorna Peters, who arrived with a group from Kalimpong in 1921. Jane is one of many hundreds of descendants now spread throughout New Zealand. Most grew up with little or no knowledge of their parent’s Indian heritage. The story of interracial relationships, institutionalisation – and the sense of abandonment that often resulted – was rarely spoken of. But since the 1980s increasing numbers have been researching their hidden histories. In the process, extraordinary personal stories and many fabulous photographs have come to light. Jane McCabe here tells this compelling and little-known New Zealand story, in pictures.

Excellent
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
Excellent product. Attractive weave design. Fabric is comfortable and thick enough to hold its form without being too warm. Holds up well to machine washing. I ordered a second set in another color and also an other shirt in a contrasting color and design. Perfect fit.

It fits true to size.
This fits my husband perfect. It is not too sporty but sporty enough. If we were going somewhere dressed casual this suit is it and he would still be comfortable. He is a sporty guy always. It is nice to see him a little more dressed, but still comfortable. This is great material.

Definitely stylish and true to fit
An amazing set fits perfectly. I would necessarily call it a track suit because it’s more stylish than that however, the comfort is track suit / walking suit feeling. I got mine in 2x and it fits as I expected it to so yes it is true to size. The colors don’t fade and the weight of the set feels like it was made with quality material, not some flimsy sown together item full of loose strings.
