Summary
"Since Europeans first set foot in New Zealand they have speculated about where the Maori people came from, how they made their way to New Zealand, and how they lived when they arrived here. Theories have abounded; some of them have hardened into accepted truth. The result has been an accumulation of Pakeha myths about Maori origins..."--Back cover.
