Pakeha Ta Moko
A History of the Europeans traditionally tattooed by Maori.
by Trevor Bentley.

Publisher:
White Cloud Books, an imprint of Upstart Press Ltd, Auckland, 2022.

Softback with minor shelf/edge-wear otherwise near new with no inscriptions.

Explore the hidden history of European men and women traditionally tattooed by Maori.
In Pakeha Ta Moko, Trevor Bentley examines the extent and significance of Maori and Pakeha tattoo exchange both on ship and shore between the 1790's and 1840's.
He uncovers the tattooing methods as well as the purpose and significance of the designs.
Bentley examines why and how some captive Pakeha males were forced to receive facial tattoos while others voluntarily crossed cultures and submitted themselves to the ta moko ritual.
Through in-depth research and interviews, Bentley explores this important part of early New Zealand history.
