ABOUT
The booklet captures the regional literary spirit of the early 20th century.
During this era, "Maoriland" was a widely recognized romantic and literary name for New Zealand used by both locals and Australians. Like much of Eyre's other writing—such as his yachting and maritime texts or his Pen Pictures of Australia and Maoriland—this specific collection consists of brief, evocative sketches, localized commentary, and rhythmic verses reflecting colonial ties, Tasman identity, and landscapes across New Zealand and Australia.
Author, Ernest L. Eyre, who occasionally wrote under the Māori pseudonym Te Aroha.
