A Letter To The Earl Of Devon, On The Late Massacre At Wairau is a historical book written by Robert Stokes in 1844. The book is a detailed account of the Wairau Massacre, which occurred in New Zealand in 1843, and its aftermath. The Wairau Massacre was a violent clash between the British colonial government and the Maori people over land ownership. The book provides a thorough analysis of the events leading up to the massacre, the massacre itself, and the subsequent investigation and trial. Stokes, who was a witness to the massacre, provides a firsthand account of the events and sheds light on the political and social tensions between the British colonizers and the Maori people. The book is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the early colonial history of New Zealand and the complex relationships between the British and Maori people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
