Niue : a history of the island

documentary heritage
  • Kupu whakaahua

    This is the story of Niue, the world's smallest self-governing nation, written by leading citizens of the country itself. The book outlines the origins and early history of a vigorous Polynesian people and the changes which have come about as the result of contact with Christianity, commerce and colonial government. The authors then describe the move toward independence, the situation in Niue today and the prospects for the future.--back cover.
