About

Signed by author

The book which Penguin Books had to recall and writer Witi Ihimaera purchased the remaining warehouse stock shortly after publication due to allegations of plagiarism issues.

A historical novel, this tells the story of five Maori wrongly transported to Tasmania in the 1840s for taking up arms against the New Zealand government. They were temporarily incarcerated on Maria Island under the care of John Jennings Imrie and his wife Ettie Bailey. One of the prisoners, Hohepa te Umuroa, died while imprisoned and it is his remarkable life which is at the heart of the novel.

Remarks

Scarce, especially signed.
