Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the history and social practices of the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand. The author, a European who spent several years in New Zealand, provides first-hand accounts of Maori traditions and cultural practices that were on the brink of disappearing due to the arrival of British colonists. The book discusses the contrasting ways of life between the indigenous Maori and the European settlers, providing a nuanced perspective on cultural differences and the changes taking place during that time. The author delves into the sophisticated systems of social organization, religious beliefs, and artistic practices of the Maori, highlighting both their cultural richness and the threats they faced due to European colonization. By combining historical research and personal observations, the book offers a unique and valuable glimpse into a society undergoing a dramatic transformation. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving cultural heritage while acknowledging the complexities of cultural change. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
