Summary
Against the background of a people in almost terminal crisis, Ngapua emerges as a potential saviour, with a career plagued by powerful opponents who at times conspire to defeat him. This epic journey into the life of one of the greatest Maori leaders of the last two centuries also offers what is, at times, a major reinterpretation of Maori politics.
