First published in 1996, Mohi Turei: Ana
tuhinga i roto i te reo Maori is the collected
writings in te reo Maori of Mohi Turei (circa
1830-1914), Ngati Porou leader, scholar
and Anglican minister.
Mohi Turei is thought to have been born about 1830 and was brought
up at Te Kautuku near Rangitukia in the Waiapu district. During the
conflicts on the East Coast of the North Island in the 1860s and in
the following decades, he became a tribal leader, especially in the
Waiapu district, where he lived almost all his life.
Turei was celebrated as a composer of haka, as an orator, as a writer
and a notable carver. He was consulted by Samuel Williams and
Elsdon Best on Maori traditions and language.
This new edition of Mohi Turei: Ana tuhinga i roto i te reo Maori
is one of four new editions of essential reo Maori texts released in
2024 by Te Herenga Waka University Press, in collaboration with
Te Takarangi, a national programme celebrating matauranga Maori
through Maori-authored works of non-fiction.
