The Roberts Report was broadcast monthly on Concert FM from early 1990 - 1995. In that time John Roberts built a reputation as one of the most perceptive regular commentators on New Zealand affairs. The pieces in this book are outstanding exaples of the extended radio talk, mixing personal comment and reminiscence with issues of major public importance. The subjects are of wide interest, covering recent major events in New Zealand society; books, film and theatre; and much more.
