Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Stars of Maoriland
Of all the stars that shine upon us on cloudless nights, how many of them are there that we can point to and name? In olden days every Maori would call the stars by their musical Maori names. He watched for their rising and setting, he planted his crops when the stars were favourable, and his canoes on their long ocean voyages were guided by the stars. He loved the beauti ful Children of Light.
