This book is an ethnohistorical reconstruction of the establishment
in New Zealand of a rare case of Maori home-rule over their
traditional domain, backed by a special statute and investigated by
a Crown commission the majority of whom were Tuhoe leaders.
However, by 1913 Tuhoe home-rule over this vast domain was being
subverted by the Crown, which by 1926 had obtained three-quarters
of their reserve. By the 1950s this vast area had become the rugged
Urewera National Park, isolating over 200 small blocks retained by
stubborn Tuhoe "non-sellers". After a century of resistance, in
2014 the Tuhoe finally regained statutory control over their
ancestral domain and a detailed apology from the Crown.
