"Of the many goods that early European visitors to New Zealand traded with Maori, the musket had by far the greatest impact. In pre-Contact Maori society, the intensity of military exchanges between iwi had been moderated by the use of traditional weaponry, limited food resourves and the equalising effect of utu. The arrival of the musket and new food sources such as the potato in the early nineteenth century radically undermined this balance of power." - from blurb on front flap of dust-jacket. .
