ABOUT
A novel of the bloody Maori Wars in New Zealand in the 1860's.
This is a story of men at war and a fascinating study of the military mind. In the Taranaki district the Maoris, fierce and able warriors, take up arms to protect their tribal lands from the white man's depredations. The European troops - British soldiers, colonial militia, and volunteers - view the rebels with good-natured contempt which turns to fear and hatred when traditional British tactics prove inadequate in the face of mobile Maori warfare.
