Old New Zealand is a book written by Frederick Edward Maning and published in 1863. It is a collection of stories and anecdotes about the author's experiences living among the Maori people in New Zealand during the mid-19th century. Maning, who was himself a Pakeha (European) settler, provides a unique perspective on Maori customs and culture, as well as the interactions between Maori and Pakeha during a time of significant societal change. The book covers a range of topics, including Maori warfare, religion, marriage customs, and everyday life. Maning's writing style is engaging and humorous, and he often uses his own experiences to illustrate larger themes. Old New Zealand is considered an important work of early New Zealand literature and provides valuable insights into the history of the country and its people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
