About this product

Product Information

Ka ngaro te reo, ka ngaro taua, pera i te ngaro o te moa. If the language be lost, man will be lost, as dead as the moa. In 1800, te reo Maori was the only language spoken in New Zealand. By 1899, it was on the verge of disappearing altogether. In Ka Ngaro Te Reo, Paul Moon traces the spiralling decline of the language during an era of prolonged colonisation that saw political, economic, cultural and linguistic power shifting steadily into the hands of the European core. In this revelatory and hard-hitting account, Moon draws on a vast range of published and archival material, as well as oral histories and contemporary Maori accounts, to chart the tortuous journey of a language under siege in a relentless European campaign to save and civilise the remnant of the Maori Race'. He also chronicles the growing commitment among many Maori towards the end of the nineteenth century to ensure that the language would survive.

Came in great condition. Item didn't get damaged during shipping which is hard with paperback books sometimes. I would definitely purchase from retailer again. This has been my 3rd purchase with them and they haven't disappointed me yet.

This item was apart of a book collection I have and these titles were only available in Australia and the UK. So it was nice to be able to order them and they came in such great condition. I did purchase new but sometimes paperbacks get damaged in shipping when I open it it was still in great condition. Would definitely purchase from seller again.
