On February 4, 1985, the New Zealand government refused port
access to the American warship U.S.S. Buchanan, on the grounds that
it might be carrying nuclear weapons. The events leading up to this
refusal, the refusal itself, and later developments relating to it
are the subject of this book. The book is divided into four
sections. The first deals with the developments within New Zealand
that led to the decision to ban nuclear-powered warships and ones
that might be armed. The next section examines the relationship
between New Zealand and the United States and how this dispute
affected it. The third considers the reaction of other countries
and the fourth ponders the effects, both immediate and longer term,
of the dispute itself and New Zealand-American relations.
