Tangata Whenua: A History – Aroha Harris

Tangata Whenua: A History presents a comprehensive narrative of Maori history from ancient origins in South China to the twenty-first century. This paperback edition draws directly from the award-winning Tangata Whenua: An Illustrated History, offering a reader-friendly format with maps, diagrams, references, and a statistical appendix. Ideal for students, general readers, or as a gift, it makes this landmark work accessible to a wider audience.

Celebrated for its authoritative research, the original hardback has won multiple accolades, including the 2015 Royal Society Science Book Prize, Te Korero o Mua Award at the Nga Kupu Ora Maori Book Awards, and Gold in the Pride in Print Awards. Maori leaders, reviewers, and younger commentators have praised the book for weaving together historical research, archaeology, science, and oral traditions, creating a work described as “a canvas to paint the future on” and a significant contribution to understanding between the people of Aotearoa.
