- Summary:
-
"This is the story of the meeting of two very different peoples and the steady building of the one nation promised by Hobson at the first signing of the Treaty of Waitangi ... The conflict between some Māori and the government was a direct consequence of cultural stresses and the rebellion of a few tribes against the new authority, and there was little impact on Māori numbers and health from that fighting or from loss of land. Māori have profited considerably from increasing equality ... and, as this book shows, Treaty grievances are not well founded"--Back cover.
