A reader of various articles and content from 19th-century Maori newspapers. For easy use and comparison, the Maori and English texts have been placed alongside one another, illustrating a fascinating range of tone, style and subject. The book contains an introduction followed by six sections divided thematically.

There are letters and editorials with all the dignity and polished rhetoric of speeches, heated political debates, electioneering, prosaic daily news items and tradesmen’s advertisements. One newspaper even includes a report of the death of a favourite cat; and the goings-on at schools and race tracks, women’s committees and marae are all reported. Divided into six sections and with the Maori and English texts running side by side, He Pitopito Korero no te Perehi Maori will be useful to students of New Zealand history, Maori language and Maori culture, and embodies the wishes of one farsighted editorial-writer in 1893 who wrote, ‘Let each person take care of his newspaper. Do not just throw it away.’
