About this book
During the nineteenth century, Maori women produced letters and memoirs, wrote off to newspapers and commissioners, appeared before commissions of enquiry, gave evidence in court cases, and went to the Native Land Court to assert their rights.
He Reo Wahine is a bold new introduction to the experience of Maori women in colonial New Zealand through Maori women's own words ā the speeches and evidence, letters and testimonies that they left in the archive.
