Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old New Zealand: A Tale of the Good Old Times The little schooner neared the land, and as we came closer and closer, I began in a most unaccountable manner to remember all the tales I had ever heard of people being baked in ovens, with cabbage and potato fixins. I had before this had some considerable expe rience of savages, but as they had no regu lar system of domestic cookery of the nature I have hinted at, and being, as I was in those days, a mere pakeha (a character I have since learned to despise), I felt, to say the least, r'ather curious as to the then existing demand on shore for butchers' meat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses of Maori Land French thinker says, When one has lived four weeks in London, one feels one could write a thick volume about the English; when one has lived there a year, one begins to have doubts on the subject; and when one has lived there ten years, one gives up the projected volume in despair.' There is, however, as a rule, a compensating freshness and vividness about first impressions which, with a riper knowledge, one may often vainly strive to recall; and for this reason, and also because our sea and land experiences were of a somewhat unique character, I have ventured to reproduce some part of our home budgets in more permanent form. On one or two points it may be well to Speak categorically at the outset, so that any chance of misapprehension on the important subject of mission work may be avoided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Musings in Maoriland Here is ever a danger of confounding analogy and identity. If it is said a State is an organ ism growing, developing as other living bod ies grow and develop, - one must not assume that a nation passes through the same phases and has all the characteristics Of an individual. It is a useful analogy to use - to say the State is an organism. There is, however, no identity, but Often dissimilarity, between the growth of a person and that Of a nation. With this caution, however, it will help us in briefly tracing the intellectual history Of New Zealand - to speak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip to Maoriland New Zealand, the land of the Maori and the Moa, the country in which originally there was not a flower with a perfume or a bird that sang, was one of the most mys terious and desolate lands on this hemisphere. 'out of the track of the early mariners it was a great undertak ing in the' years gone by to reach there, vessels taking six to eight months to reach its shores, where now it can be accomplished in about forty-five days. Ac cording to some it was uninhabited till by gales or tribal wars members of the Kanaka tribe (sandwich Islands) were driven to seek an asylum in this wild and mystic country To bear out that theory the customs of the Maoris and the Kanaka are similar; but, through clim atic conditions, they have grown taller and sturdier. As to animal life there was none until Captain Cook, the discoverer, landed some pigs, which fact, no doubt, was the cause of canibalism being practiced. Now, what a transformation, fine cities, large tracts of cultivated land, woolen and other manufactories, gold and coal mining, an immense frozen meat industry, with wool and wheat as a background; in fact everything that goes to make a prosperous country is inrfull swing. The one thing is left, and will be there for all time, its grand and wildly rugged coast line, for it has that peculiarity, that its interior is sheltered from the rude blasts of. gales, as a garden protected by a high wall.

Within a forest stood a grand old tree, Whose head above the other plants rose high; He was the forests first-born. Sun and sky Had known him, and had smiled on him ere he Had kinsfolk near, or leafy brethren nigh; The wild birds brought to him their minstrelsy; The singers knew that when the scene was rude, He grew and gave a shelter to their race. By him the wandering melodists were wooed To trill and warble in that lonely place; A sanctuary in the solitude He gave to them. In him the birds could trace The forest's king, and so from hills and plains They flew to him, and sang their sweetest strains.
