First published in 1851, this book is based on the journal Edward Shortland kept in 1843 while conducting a census of Maori settlements from Akaroa to Dunedin. It records South Island Maori myths, traditions and everyday life and urges prospective European settlers to take proper account of the Maori world-view.
