Feature Guest - Paula Morris

Paula Morris' book 'Rangitira' tells the story of Paratene Te Manu, the rangitira who sat for Gottfried Lindauer. In the book, Paratene Te Manu tells Lindauer about the ill-fated trip he made to England in 1863 when he and 13 other Maori rangitira travelled the country to meet with royalty and aristocracy - before the visit disintegrated into estrangement and mistrust.
