In 1990 those living on Chatham Islands/ Rekohu/ Wharekauri faced crisis. Annexed to New Zealand by a London proclamation, the Islands had experienced 150 years of New Zealand control. Years of muddlement, some good intentions, financial waste exploitation and theft, and failure to deliver democratic rights and basic infrastructure. The after-effects of Rogernomics had produced a government decision to “walk away”. Such infrastructure as existed would be abandoned, with the Islanders left to save themselves, or fail and leave. How could it have come to this? The first part of this book details the improbable constitutional history of the Islands to 1990. It includes gunship visits to enforce rule; support of Maori for Tohu, Te Whiti, and Parihaka pacifism; a revolt where the magistrate’s authority crumbled to nothing; and many more remarkable events. In 1990, Islanders rose to the challenge of their new independence from Wellington. Their independent community co-operative, the Chatham Islands Enterprise Trust, soon flourished. Today it operates electricity, ports, shipping, and other companies; uses a portfolio of fishing quota to support on-Island fishers, and supports private Island businesses. The second part of this book tells how this was achieved. This book will be welcomed by those interested in these or any islands. Equally, those wanting to know more about the most curious parts of the history of government in Aotearoa New Zealand, or just all who enjoy a story of improbable success.

Comfortable
Material Type: Black - 2 Pairs, Size: X-Large, Material Type: Black - 2 Pairs, Size: X-Large
I have very sensitive skin, so I usually need to wear socks at all times. These are especially comfortable because they don’t cover the toes, which helps with temperature control. The material is well-balanced—not too thick or too thin—and has just the right amount of stretch. I also appreciate the large traction area, which adds stability. Another plus is that they are completely fragrance-free.

Great Heel Socks
Material Type: Black - 3 Pairs, Size: Large
I don't know how they work but it's wonderful. I've had rough heel problems for a long time. I wear these everyday and my heels are not rough. They're not baby bottom smooth, but they are not ever going to be. These heel socks also oncce they are properly positioned snap onto the heel. Properly positioning them is easy when you put them on your foot with the heel cup in the correct orientation.

Too small
Material Type: Gray - 3 Pairs, Size: X-Large
Too tight! Even size large used for a man with smaller feet is too tight. Also, no instructions for use or care.

Good fit
Material Type: Black - 3 Pairs, Size: X-Large
My husband just started using these and they feel comfortable. Hasn't used them long enough to see if his heels are better. He has a high arch so I bought him the XL and they fit perfectly.

No more painful cracked heels! These really do work!
Material Type: Black - 3 Pairs, Size: X-Large
These really do work well. This is one of the first winters that I have not experienced painful, cracked heels. They are long lasting, and definitely make my heels smoother and softer after wearing them. For the first few times wearing them I simply went with the moisturizer embedded in them. After a few uses I then covered my heels with Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment. This worked even better, and I would recommend it. I am very glad I bought these. Of note, I have really big feet that are quite wide and the XL are a little snug but not uncomfortably so. I use them overnight, but also have worn them under socks and they work fine.
