Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book plunges you into the heart of 19th-century New Zealand during the turbulent Maori Wars. Through the true story of Kimble Bent, a soldier who deserts and joins the Maori, the author paints a vivid picture of a clash between cultures and the struggle for survival in a wild and unforgiving land. Bent's journey takes him deep into the Maori world, where he witnesses firsthand their customs, beliefs, and the fierce warrior spirit that fueled their resistance. He navigates the complexities of Maori society, facing suspicion and hostility, while also finding unexpected moments of compassion and acceptance. The book explores themes of cultural identity, belonging, and the transformative power of immersing oneself in a different way of life. It delves into the dark side of war, including the revival of cannibalism, and the brutal realities faced by both Maori and British soldiers. Ultimately, Bent's story serves as a powerful testament to the human capacity for adaptation and resilience, even in the face of extreme adversity. It offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in New Zealand's history, leaving you with a deeper understanding of the enduring legacy of this conflict. 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. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330828885_0
