Maori Wars of the Nineteenth Century

Maori Wars of the Nineteenth Century: The Struggle of the Northern against the Southern Maori Tribes Prior to the Colonisation of New Zealand in 1840 This pioneering study, originally published 1899–1901 and reissued here in the enlarged edition of 1910, was written by a retired New Zealand government surveyor turned ethnologist. It covers the inter-tribal Musket Wars of the early nineteenth century, and provides fascinating insights into the European reception of Maori oral traditions. Autor: S.
