From Ahaura to Whitianga, this handily sized book is the definitive guide to over 2300 of the most common and notable Maori names on our land. Why do Whangarei, Tauranga, Motueka and Timaru have the names they do? Why all the fuss about the spelling of Whanganui and Rimutaka? What are the original names for Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin? Maori Place Names gives concise and clear answers, as well as taking in curiosities like the world's longest place name (pictured). The new Maori Place Names includes maps on the inside covers showing principal names, and also reproduces the illustrations from the original 1950 edition by renowned artist James Berry.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H 919.3001 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H 919.3001 Re Non Circulating Add Copy to MyList
