Hauraki Landmarks is a major publication that represents many years of scholarly and field research by the late Taimoana Turoa. Following in the tradition of Don Stafford's Landmarks of Te Arawa, this book is a history both of the Maori peoples and of important places in the Hauraki region. After Turoa's untimely death in 1998, the book has been brought to completion by his nephew, Te Ahukaramu Charles Royal, director of graduate studies and research at Te Wananga-o-Raukawa. The Hauraki tribal district encompasses the entire Coromandel Peninsula as far south as Katikati, the Hauraki Plains, the lands bordering the Hauraki Gulf (taking in the east coast of Auckland as far north as Cape Rodney) and the islands of the Gulf, including Rangitoto, Hauturu (Little Barrier) and Aotea (Great Barrier). The area is home to the Parehauraki tribes, many of which are sub-tribes of Tainui. Te Takoto o te Whenua o Hauraki: Hauraki Landmarks is destined to become the standard work on the Maori history of Hauraki - bringing alive places and history across the fertile lands that stretch from the built-up coast of Auckland to the wild beauty of the Coromandel.

The isthmus between two harbours on which modern Auckland now stands and which Maori called Tamaki-makau-rau was a virtual population void when Hobson bought it in 1840 from the resident owners as the site of his new capital. But it was reputed in former times to be the most densely settled region in Aotearoa. From Tamaki-makau-rau to Auckland explains that paradox. It traces the history of the region from the beginnings of settlement about 800 years ago up to 1840. It uses parallel and often corrobative versions drawn from Maori oral traditions and Land Court records, and from the work of archaeologists and pre-historians.

'This is My Place' tells the story of a vigorous Maori economy interacting with settlers and the government at the then capital of Auckland. It traces also Maori resistance to colonisation, wars and debt, and the eventual loss and confiscation of vast acres of Maori land. By 1875 the wealth of Hauraki was mostly in the hands of the newcomers: European settlers and their government.

This book offers a sweeping history of Pureora Forest Park, one of the most significant sites of natural and cultural history interest in New Zealand. The authors review the geological history of the volcanic zone, its flora and fauna, and the history of Maori and European utilization of forest resources. Chapter-length discussions cover management of the native forest by the New Zealand Forest Service; the forest village and its sawmills; the intensive timber harvesting, and the conflicts with conservationists and expensive compensation agreements that ensued. Separate chapters cover initiatives to protect the forest from introduced herbivores; to guard protected species, especially birds, from predators; the facilities for recreational hunting; the development of the Timber Trail, an 83 km cycleway through the forest and along old logging tramways, complete with detailed interpretation signs illustrating the history of logging; and the family recreation areas and tracks. The final chapter gathers conclusions and advances prospects for the future of Pureora Forest. In sum, the book demonstrates how ecological study, combined with a respect for people and for nature plus a flexible, interdisciplinary approach to both local history and current scientific priorities, can be welded into a consistently effective strategy for addressing the pressing forest-ecology questions of our time.

A long-awaited digital edition of a book that has remained in steady demand since publication in 1995. Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki was one of the nineteenth century’s most significant leaders. In both war and peace, he sought to redeem his people and the land. Yet his reputation as a feared opponent of colonial forces obscured his achievements for generations. The causes of Te Kooti’s struggles are larger than personal injustice: he fought a war against land confiscation and illegal land purchases. This award-winning biography, published in 1995, shifted public perceptions of this remarkable man. Dame Judith Binney was honoured widely for her contribution to New Zealand history. Her particular place in the writing of Urewera history was recognised by Tūhoe leaders when she was given the name Te Tomairangi o Te Aroha. A Fellow of the Royal Society, she received the Prime Minister’s Award for Literary Achievement in Non-Fiction in 2006.
