Sir Joseph Ward (1856-1930) was the leading political figure during the forty-year life of the Liberal Party in New Zealand. He was a member of Ballance's first Cabinet, twice Prime Minister (1906-12 and 1928-30), and was still a Cabinet Minister at the time of his death. This lively biography is the story of an ambitious first-generation New Zealander of Irish Catholic parents who spent more than half a century in local and central government politics, influencing the directions taken in many areas of New Zealand life. It contains much new material about Ward's private business dea 606 $aPrime ministers 606 $aPolitical science 615 0$aPrime ministers. 615 0$aPolitical science. 676 $a993.031092 700 $aBassett$b Michael$f1938-$01464649 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790854003321 996 $aSir Joseph Ward$93674407 997 $aUNINA
