Description

Following the ongoing success of A Short History of New Zealand, Great Tales of New Zealand History and Great Tales of Rural New Zealand - all reprinted and still going strong, Gordon McLauchlan has turned his masterful storytelling skills to one of the most important periods in this country's history. Published to coincide with New Zealand's first national day commemorating the New Zealand land wars on 28 October, this insightful and accessible book will be of interest to New Zealanders wanting to find out more about the struggle between Maori and the colonial powers over land issues and the consequences for our country without having to wade through heavy tomes.
