Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Reprint. This is a 2002 reprint of the 1986 first edition. Overall in very good condition, shelf rubbing to base of spine and corners, corners bumped, dust jacket has chips at corners, scratches and a tear at the top of the spine, matching a small tear at the top of the spine. Binding otherwise sound. Top right hand corner of front endpaper has been folded. This major work traces the history of the Rangitane tribe, now based around the Manawatu but with genealogical and political links extending throughout central New Zealand. Since publication in 1986, it has become established as the standard work of Rangitane. Drawing on available written and oral sources, J.M. McEwen has here faithfully collected, recorded and translated the whole of Rangitane traditions - the tribe's history and whakapapa, its legends, proverbs and waiata - from the early days of migration on the Kurahaupo canoe to the late twentieth century. Extensive whakapapa charts, songs and proverbs are detailed along with the main history. Of particular interest is the evolution of Rangitane and its interaction over the centuries with its neighbours, Ngati Ira, Ngai Tara, Ngati Kahungunu, Muaupoko, Nagati Toa and Ngati Raukawa. Too often the tribes have been regarded as static entities; the author here demonstrates the fluctuating fortunes of tribal groupings who only by absorption, invasion, conquest or alliance have established the identities they bear today. Rangitane is a work of painstaking scholarship and also of engrossing readability. It is of interest not only to the people of Rangitane themselves but to all who care about the strong and enduring Maori thread in New Zealand's history. Signed by Author(s). …
