Includes bibliographical references and index.
This is one of the earliest and most significant overseas travel accounts written in Māori - the diary of a visit to Vienna made by its author, Hemara Te Rerehau, and his Tainui kinsman, Wiremu Toetoe. But it's not only a report on the young men's 'OE'. Side by side is an English translation, and Helen Hogan provides an intriguing commentary which explains the diary's rich, historical background. " Who were they and why did they go to Europe? " What was the relationship like between Europeans and Māori? " Why did Emperor Franz Joseph give them a printing press to bring back? " What happened when they returned to the bitter land wars of Aotearoa New Zealand? What was it like when two cultures merged to form one nation? There are plenty of written accounts from the Pākehā point of view but precious few from the Māori viewpoint. This is one of the precious few. For people with an enthusiasm for Aotearoa New Zealand's history, for te reo Māori and for Māoritanga.
