The Maori texts in this 1913–15 publication were written down over fifty years earlier by W. H. Whatahoro, acting as scribe for senior Maori elders. Whatahoro himself helped prepare the accompanying English translation. Volume 2 covers traditions concerning the origins and early history of the Maori people and their migrations.
