Review:
Maori Times, Maori Places is a book that will interest scholars of New Zealand as well as general readers. It is a history that seeks to place the Maramatanga within the changing landscape of New Zealand. Through all the political and social upheaval of the past seventy years, the gentle voice of Te Karere can still be heard by her people.--Oceana

A valuable book for and about a group of people who have lived mostly in isolation and were therefore largely unknown in the wider world.--The Contemporary Pacific
About the Author:
