"I whānau i te tau 1829 i Te Kautuku, takiwā o Waiapu. I mate i te 2 o Maehe 1914 i tana kāinga, i Rangitukia. He uri no te whānau a Ngāti Hokopū, arā, te Whānau ā Rerewa, te hapu o tana matua o Omanga. Ko Mākere Tangikuku tana whaea o Te Aitanga ā Mate o Whareponga. I kuraina i Raukahikatea, a, no 1870 ka whakapākia hei pirihi mo tētahi taha o te rohe. Nāna hoki a Apirana Ngata i iriiri i runga i nga whakarite a Paratene.He tangata mātau a ia ki te ao Māori, tōna reo me ōna tikanga. Na tāna mōhio ki te mau pene, ka maha āna tuhinga i te reo Māori. Nāna i tuhituhi ngā kōrero a Pita Kāpiti mo ētahi āhuatanga a te Maori.Ka waimārie tātau i ēnei tuhinga, a, ko te ngākau whakawhetai kei te mīharo ki a Mohi."--Publisher's website. "Mohi Turei is thought to have been born about 1830 and was brought up at Te Kautuku near Rangitukia in the Waiapu district. During the conflicts on the East Coast of the North Island in the 1860s and in the following decades, he became a tribal leader, especially in the Waiapu district, where he lived almost all his life. Turei was celebrated as a composer of haka, as an orator, as a writer and a notable carver. He was consulted by Samuel Williams and Elsdon Best on Maori traditions and language."--UBIQ.
