Title: Tangata Whenua: An Illustrated History
Author: ANDERSON ATHOLL & BINNEY JUDITH & HARRIS AROHA

Maori at the centre of the country’s story, Tangata Whenua begins in the Pacific & outlines early settlement in NZ. A 2nd section covers the period of great change in the 19th century, examining how Maori communities were affected by the influx of new technology, religious ideas, trade & literacy. The history then extends forward through the twentieth century – with two world wars, the growth of an urban Maori culture, rising protest, & Treaty claims & settlements. At the beginning of the 21st century, Maori are drawing on both international connections & their ancestral place in Aotearoa. The ways in which growth & development are interwoven with tension & resistance will be evident in the future as they have been throughout the past.
