Description

The Greenstone Door by William Satchell. 'Set during the turbulent times of the Maori Wars, The Greenstone Door is New Zealand's most famous historical novel. The hatreds between the Maoris and the Pakeha settlers; the bloodthirsty raids on enemy villages; the tragic romance between Cedric Tregarthen and Governor Grey's ward, Leonora; all are brought to life through the skilful pen of William Satchell. In viewing the conflict between Maori and Pakeha from both sides, The Greenstone Door was ahead of its time when it was first published in 1914. With its romance and advnture, its historical accuracy and its insight into Maori-Pakeha relations, it is a New Zealand Classic in every sense.' The dust jacket has light to medium general wear. The inside front free page has been neatly removed but the book remains tight and bright.
