Synopsis

Learn about the intriguing hidden history of New Zealand told in rhyming prose with great Kiwi humour.

Discover the intriguing hidden history of New Zealand expressed in rhyming prose with a double dose of classic Kiwi humour.

History records enough evidence of what this country looked like in the early 1800s - and it wasn't pretty. Debauchery, disease, deception, death and killing were the inevitable results of a lawless society seen everywhere. It was only a matter of time until this land was destined to be devoid of crowds of any sort unless some sort of miracle occurred.

Fortunately for all of us 'some sort of miracle' did take place and THE JEWEL IN THE SEA tells the story. A miraculous series of events pivotal on the life of a 12-year old girl in the Waikato were the catalyst to help bring about the change the country so desperately needed-the freedom, the zeal, the life and the liberty we all enjoy in this beautiful land called Aotearoa.
