Includes bibliographical references (pages 299-308) and index.
Challenges the conventional history of the period and substantially revises the picture of British involvement in the fledgling colony. Moon discloses: details of the first Treaty settlement by the Crown; FitzRoy's desire for a separate Maori legal and justice system; the possible reasons for FitzRoy's suicide in 1865; newly discovered material on the conspiracy to have FitzRoy removed as Governor of New Zealand.
