The Last Maori War In New Zealand: Under The Self Reliant Policy is a historical account of the final conflict between the Maori people and the British colonial government in New Zealand in the late 19th century. Written by George Stoddart Whitmore, a British soldier and administrator who served in New Zealand during this time, the book provides a detailed narrative of the events leading up to the war, the battles themselves, and their aftermath. The book explores the complex political and cultural tensions between the Maori people and the British settlers, as well as the role of the colonial government in exacerbating these tensions. It also examines the Maori resistance to British rule, including their use of guerrilla tactics and their strategic alliances with other indigenous groups. Throughout the book, Whitmore emphasizes the importance of the British colonial policy of self-reliance, which aimed to give greater autonomy to local communities and reduce the reliance on British military intervention. He argues that this policy was instrumental in ending the conflict and establishing a more peaceful relationship between the Maori people and the British colonial government. Overall, The Last Maori War In New Zealand provides a comprehensive and insightful account of a pivotal moment in New Zealand's history, shedding light on the complex dynamics of colonialism, resistance, and reconciliation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
