The nineteenth-century writings of Maori authorities have left us a vast heritage of myths and legends. These speak of a thousand years' experience of Aotearoa, and also recall in their origins the first human explorations of the islands of Polynesia.
Drawing upon this literature, Margaret Orbell has produced an all-embracing and highly readable work of reference.
