The Long White Cloud: Ao Tea Roa is a book written by William Pember Reeves and published in 1899. The book is a travelogue that describes Reeves’ experiences during his time in New Zealand. The title of the book comes from the Maori name for New Zealand, which means ''the land of the long white cloud.'' Reeves’ writing style is descriptive and poetic, painting vivid pictures of the landscapes, people, and culture he encounters on his journey. He explores the history and traditions of the Maori people, as well as the impact of European colonization on the country. Throughout the book, Reeves shares his observations on the natural beauty of New Zealand, from its rugged coastlines to its majestic mountains. He also discusses the country’s unique flora and fauna, including the kiwi bird and the kauri tree. The Long White Cloud: Ao Tea Roa is a fascinating glimpse into New Zealand at the turn of the 20th century, providing readers with a rich and detailed portrait of this beautiful and complex country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
