The Long White Cloud: Ao Tea Roa is a book written by William Pember Reeves in 1899. The book is a comprehensive account of New Zealand's history, culture, and society. The title of the book is derived from the Maori name for New Zealand, which means the land of the long white cloud.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides a detailed history of New Zealand, from the arrival of the Polynesians to the colonization by the British. The second part of the book focuses on the culture and society of the Maori people, including their traditions, customs, and beliefs. The third part of the book explores the impact of European colonization on New Zealand, including the conflicts between the Maori and the British, and the cultural and social changes that occurred as a result.Reeves, who was a prominent politician and intellectual in New Zealand, wrote the book with a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for the country's history and culture. The Long White Cloud: Ao Tea Roa is considered a classic work of New Zealand literature and an important contribution to the understanding of the country's past and present.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
