		The Hutt Valley Campaign of 1846 during the New Zealand land wars could almost be seen as a sequel to the Wairau Affray.
		The careless or unscrupulous purchase of land from the Māori by the New Zealand Company, and the impatience of the settlers to move on to disputed land, were the triggering factors.

	Nathaniel P. Banks' Report of Jackson's Valley Campaign
		One of the most famous campaigns of the Civil War, Jackson's Valley campaign is still studied as a model of military efficiency and daring.

		It was determined, therefore, to enter the lists with the enemy in a race or a battle, as he should choose, for the possession of Winchester, the key of the valley, and for us the position of safety.
