- Summary
- "Alfred Grace was a member of the celebrated 'Maoriland' school of writing that flourished between 1896 and 1915. These writers' romantic treatment of the Maori people helped shape New Zealand's culture in the early twentieth century. Maoriland Stories (1895) was Grace's first major publication. It contains four stories about settlers and three about Maori and Maori-Pakeha relations. The latter stories were of particular interest to readers of the time."--Back cover.
