OUR EARLY HISTORY
“YESTERDAYS IN MAORILAND” “Yesterdays in Maoriland,” by Andreas Reischek, is a link with the past which will appeal particularly to Neiv Zealanders. It has been translated from the German by H. E. L. Priday and published by Jonathan Cape, Ltd. The author came to New Zealand in 1877 at the instance of Ferdinand von Hochstetter and was the associate of Haast, Buller, Sir James Hector and other of this country’s most noted naturalists and pioneers. In 12 years he explored the country from
north to south as well as the surrounding islands, and his experiences in mountain and bush make fascinating reading. Perhaps the most interesting of his pages, however, deal with the Maoris. Reischek was the first white man to be allowed by King Tawhiao to enter the King Country after the Maori Wars.
