Like them that dream: the Māori and the Old Testament

Like Them That Dream tells of the early interaction between Maori and missionary, outlining the background of the Christian mission in New Zealand. After examining the cultural reasons why Maori often chose to identify with the Israelites of ancient times, many distinctive Maori responses to Christianity ? including the formation of such religious movements as Pai Marire, the Parihaka Movement, Ringatu and Ratana ? are discussed in further detail. Like Them That Dream was first published in 1985. This reprint of the revised edition incorporates further research and additional photographs.
