From Product Description:

When the Waves Rolled Upon Us is a collection of essays focusing on Maori and European contact in the South. This collection helps to extend our knowledge of South Island Maori, in particular the history of Kai Tabu in the southern half of the island. Topics discussed in the book include the Taranaki prisoners in Dunedin, missionaries, Maori and sexuality, and the purchase of the southern land blocks. Several of the essays look at the lives and work of individuals such as HK Taiaroa, Tame Parata, Edward Shortland, and AS Atkinson.

Enhanced Descriptions from Syndetics:

Twelve essays by history students of the U. of Otago have the Maori history of the South Island (Te Wai Pounamu) as their focus. The intersections between Maori and European culture are placed in the foreground as authors examine the construction of racial identities, the missionary project, the misconceptualization of Maori land use underpinning European land purchases, and other topics. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
