Maori In The Great War
I made it up to page 11 the book is pretty big with a total of 161 pages and some stuff at the back so you can see what rank people were in the war their name occupation
the book was originally produced in the decade the First World War as one of the numerous histories covering the campaigns of the war and the part played by the various regiments and other units.
author James Cowan did not serve with the Maori Pioneer Battlion his credentials for recording this history were impeccable he was a fluent speaker in te reo and had already published many works covering New Zealand colonial history and Maori ethnography.
And cant wait to read more.
