"The New Zealand Wars changed the course of this country's history. Three decades of bloodshed across much of the North Island in the nineteenth century left scars that still cast a shadow. This guidebook heavily illustrated with photographs, artwork and maps, takes the reader on a journey of discovery, both by car and on foot, through the often-ignored history that surrounds us" --Back cover.
