The History of Taranaki by Benjamin Wells is a comprehensive account of the history of the Taranaki province in New Zealand. Originally published in 1878, this book is considered a standard work on the subject and provides a detailed overview of the region’s early Maori inhabitants, European settlement, and significant events leading up to the late 19th century. The book begins with a detailed account of the Maori tribes that inhabited the region, their customs, and their interactions with European explorers and settlers. Wells also covers the arrival of European missionaries and traders, the establishment of the New Plymouth settlement, and the conflicts between Maori and European settlers that led to the Taranaki Wars. In addition to the historical narrative, The History of Taranaki also includes biographical sketches of notable figures in the region’s history, such as Governor Thomas Gore Browne, missionary Richard Taylor, and Maori chief Wiremu Kingi Te Rangitake. Overall, The History of Taranaki is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of New Zealand or the Taranaki region specifically. It provides a detailed and engaging account of the people, events, and cultural developments that have shaped this unique part of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
