ABOUT
Draws on official papers, settler manuscripts and oral history to give the first complete account of what took place at Parihaka.
A groundbreaking and seminal work of New Zealand history that exposes the colonial government's wrongful land confiscations and the subsequent invasion of the peaceful Māori settlement of Parihaka on 5 November 1881.
Parihaka has become a byword for Maori refusal to yield land, culture and dignity to New Zealand's colonial government. Well after the end of the New Zealand Wars, the people of this small settlement at the foot of Mt Taranaki held out against the encroachments of Pakeha settlers in a struggle that swapped the weapons of war for the weapons of peace.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and drawings, and a map.
