He discusses in detail concepts such as mana, tapu, matauranga and whakapapa, and explains the customs of rahui, taua and haka. In his later years, living with his wife Amiria in Auckland's Herne Bay, Eruera was a much respected figure in the Māori community.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H B STIRLING Non Circulating Add Copy to MyList
