Radio Hauraki 40th Anniversary Book


Here's your best chance to grab a piece of pirate radio history and only 500 copies of 'The Pirate Years' are being produced. We've been allocated just 30 copies, and many others have already been allocated to Radio Hauraki staff and supporters that are located in New Zealand. Radio Hauraki The Pirate Years will be a pictorial record of the 1966-1970 era and will be:
- hardbound
- 305mm x 235mm landscape format
- 200 pages [approx] of black and white and color photos
- 'Memories' from many of the pirates
- limited edition print run of only 500 copies
- each book numbered AND your name printed in the book as one of the
original 500 owners

The book is compiled by ex-Hauraki pirate John Monks, and includes photos from private collections and exclusive 'memories' just for this book. This is a private publication and all 500 copies must be pre-sold to finance printing and production costs.

If, for any reason, the project does not proceed, all payments will be refunded in full. However, talking with John about an hour ago, he confirmed that heavy orders have already been received and all he can allocate to us on a firm basis are just 30 copies.

If orders exceed 30, we'll place you on a waiting list in case John can allocate a few more copies to us. However, It's expected the book will be fully pre-sold within the next week or so, and be available around May once all the art work is finished and the photos ready.
