Like its English counterpart, the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography is an impressive, unique resource, offering more than 3000 separate citations on figures transplanted and aboriginal, all of whom "made their mark" on Australia's pastoral neighbor. Presented alphabetically, biographies are brief but rich in detail (averaging between 500 and 1000 words), revealing much about the character of the land from which they hail. The majority of the biographies feature images, further references on their subject, and a ready-made bibliographic citation of the resource or URL.
