"Matenga Tamati saw himself as the true successor to Te Kooti, answering the spiritual needs of Maori at the end of the nineteenth century. The religious movement he founded, Te Kohititanga Marama, exerted great influence in the Wairoa district around the turn of the twentieth century - yet is all forgotten in the area and has been largely ignored by writers on Maori religions. This fascinating book redresses that imbalance. Bronwyn Elsmore has gathered invaluable oral evidence to complement the few published sources, piecing together a complete picture of the beliefs, values, practice and legacy of the Kohiti religion. Te Kohititanga Marama ensures that Te Matenga and his religion of the New Moon take their rightful place in the history of Aotearoa - New Zealand."--Academy Book Company website.
