Bold, energetic and visionary, for 18 years Solomon forged a courageous and determined course, bringing a uniquely Maori approach to a range of issues. Now, in this direct memoir, Ta Mark reflects on his life, on the people who influenced him, on what it means to lead, and on the future for both Ngai Tahu and Aotearoa New Zealand"--Publisher information>PlaceAuckland, New ZealandOther IdGN672.2 SOL (Library of Congress Call Number)92710 (Cat ID)92481 (Presto content ID)DepartmentPublications Enquire Add to My Collection Images and documents Catalogue Catalogue Object TypebookName/TitleMana whakatipu : Ngai Tahu leader Mark Solomon on leadership and lifePrimary MakerMark Revington Mark SolomonContributor/PublisherMassey University PressPlaceAuckland, New ZealandDate2021Physical Description247 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some colour) ; 21 cmISBN/ISSN09951354369780995135437LanguageEnglishTe Reo MāoriLevel of Current RecordBib recordMember Object1 item in this collection.
