This book investigates a complaint raised by the New Zealand government in 1921 about the high levels of freight rates on produce exported from New Zealand to the United Kingdom. The Imperial Shipping Committee was called upon to review and report on the evidence presented, which included nancial information from various shipping companies. The book's conclusions delve into the impact of factors such as rising fuel costs and wartime conditions on shipping costs.
