Landmarks of Tainui
These handsome books relate the historical and geographical record of the Tanui tribal confederation. Tradition tells that Tanui migrated from Hawaiiki and their landfall was at Kawhia in Aotearoa in the fouteenth century. With territorial expansion Tanui lands expanded to encompass the North Island west coast from Manukau to Taranaki, the east coast from the Hauraki Gulf to the northern Bay of Plenty, and most of the land in between. Stories from Tanui tradition and history describe the tribe's stategic strongholds spaced over their land and along the coast. Wherever possible the author has included a photographic record so that the modern generation can appreciate the greatness of the past.
