Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In South Auckland, New Zealand, Mannie and his wife, Jo, have finally achieved stability. Mannies successful job as a carpenter gives the couple hopes for a future home and children. But its all about to come tumbling down. When Wall Street crashes in 2005, the New Zealand economy plunges into a recession. Mannie loses his job and is forced to apply for the unemployment benefit to survive. Worse, he and Jo must take in boarders in order to make the rent. But Mannie soon sees his misfortune as an opportunity to reclaim land in the Tongariro National Park that belonged to his Maori tribe more than one hundred and thirty years ago. Mannie persuades a small, disillusioned group of young Maori into claiming sovereignty over a small block of land on the side of a mountain, offering freedom and peace in protest against the government. They build huts and live off the land. Mannie and Jo try to find their former happiness, but then tragedy strikes, and Mannie suddenly finds himself in a deadly game of survival.

Book excerpt: This book is about Maori land confiscation in the 1960s through facilitated alienation of allegedly unproductive Maori land under the Maori Affairs Act of 1953. The book explains how government agencies utilised a range of measures to evict Maori owners from their land then sold or leased their land in the national interest. At Pokaewhenua (a land block in Waikato), a Maori Land Court Judge deemed whanau land waste land then forcibly sold their land, evicting its owners from the land and their cultivation and farming operations destroyed. As a land block confiscated in the 1860s, returned to its owners as a native reservation in the 1920s, it was reconfiscated again in the 1960s in the national interest. The manner in which this land block was taken should have been out of step with the period but wider examination may find that this method was utilised widely as another way to disenfranchise Maori from land that was deemed unproductive to the nation, but was a means of sustainable livelihood for its owners.

Book excerpt: Ki te Whaiao: An Introduction to Māori Culture and Society, is intended for students of Māori studies at tertiary institutions. It is also aimed at several other audiences: those Māori who want to know more about their own world, Pākehā living in this country, and people from overseas who want to learn about the history of the Indigenous people of Aotearoa/New Zealand. The book describes traditional and contemporary Māori society and its interaction with Pākehā society since first contact. It gives expression to the voices and words of Māori scholars and those informed by their world-view. Emphasis has been placed on the clarification of Māori cultural concepts throughout, in order to give readers a deeper understanding of the Māori world and to excite their interest in the key themes developed throughout the text. The book has been arranged in two parts Part one is called Te Ao Māori (The Māori World) and examines a series of topics encompassing tribal histories about the creation,important cultural concepts, the migration journeys to Aotearoa, the origins of the Māori language, cultural traditions and practices, leadership and Māori performing and fine arts. Part two, Ngā Ao e Rua (The Two Worlds) examines early contact between Māori and Pākehā, the Treaty and related issues, religion, sovereignty, education and literature, and ends with a chapter on the Pacific peoples in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
