About This Item
New York: W. W. Norton & Company, 1987. First American Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Based on a gory series of skirmishes near Wellington between 1868 and 1869, this novel combines a knockout of a war story, a tour of as yet unexploited Maori country, an account of British imperialism and a portrait of native life and customs to create a vivid pageant of colonial New Zealand.A broad canvas of beautifully articulated characters, a tender, credible love story and a searing climatic trial scene make this a novel readers won't soon forget."--Publishers Weekly
