The Story of a Treaty | He Korero Tiriti 3E

The Treaty of Waitangi/Te Tiriti o Waitangi is a central document in the history of Aotearoa New Zealand. This lively account tells the story of the Treaty/Te Tiriti from its signing in 1840, through the debates and struggles of the nineteenth century, to the gathering political momentum of recent decades. The Story of a Treaty/He Korero Tiriti takes the narrative out to a wide audience, with rich illustration and concise writing underpinned by Dame Claudia Orange's acclaimed scholarship. Explaining the role of Te Tiriti o Waitangi up to the present day, this book will continue as a superb introduction to Treaty history for future generations.

Her long-standing commitment to public history and Treaty education sets a standard to which most of us can only aspire.' - Aroha Harris, Associate Professor of History, University of Auckland
