Book Launch: The Meeting Place
As I mentioned in a recent post, a new edition of my book The Meeting Place: Māori and Pākehā Encounters, 1642-1840 will shortly be published by Bridget Williams Books after the original 2012 work has been out of print for some time now.
I am delighted to now share with you details of the book launch, to be held in Wellington on Tuesday 14 October at the Royal Society Te Apārangi and featuring Hon. Justice Sir Joe Wiliams as guest speaker.

To mark the release of this new edition, I will be giving away a signed copy of the book to a randomly selected paid (premium) subscriber to this newsletter on the official launch date. The winner can either receive their prize in person at the launch or I’ll post it.
To enter the draw just sign up for a premium subscription before 14 October using the link at the bottom of the email or page. And if you are an existing premium subscriber, you are already in the draw.
