The Welcome of Strangers : A History of Southern Maori

The dynamics of an evolving southern world are mapped by distinguished archaeologist Atholl Anderson in a new edition of his groundbreaking book from 1998. The Welcome of Stranger traces the early migrations of Waitaha and Kati Mamoe people and the later arrival and settlement of Ngai Tahu. These were the communities that the first Europeans encountered, as whalers, sealers and missionaries made their way around the coast. With new research, informative maps and a strong visual narrative, The Welcome of Stranger is co-published with Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu.
