Author: HAWES, PETER
Title: Tasman's lay
Description: Christchurch, Hazard Press. 1995, First Edition. (ISBN: 090879052x) Soft cover, 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book, 248 pages, foxing on edges. So tormented was Abel Tasman by events surrounding his 'discovery' of Aotearoa New Zealand that he covered up the true events, effectively concealing the 'new' land from European knowledge through seven generations. Now, in 'Tasman's Lay', an historical novel tracing the explorer's journey, Peter Hawes shrugs aside the trivial detail of history and lifts the lid on history's ultimate cover up. Very Good.
