What's interesting about this is first off, it's written in 1935, almost 100 years after the Maori Wars events, and nothing about this volume 10 issue 9 article on Hone Heke is academic. The descriptions of his features and manner are well written, but the title alone "A Chivalrous Rebel", describes him far more than any other words written within the article, demoting his actual role in Aotearoa New Zealand History.
As we all know, the British Imperial presence in New Zealand and around the rest of their trade sphere, either in the Asia Pacific or in South Africa in the 1800s, is fully dependent on foreign alliances within regions they wished to do business. Never have the British been in a position of military dominance over Catholic powers or their German neighbors, and the Treaty of Waitangi grants sovereign powers to British by their Allied Maori hosts. The High Chief Hone Heke is not "The Rebel", he is the host and owner of the land in which the first New Zealand Government offices are taking shape.
This 1935 issue 9 of The New Zealand Railways Magazine volume 10 in NZETC is an odd thing to collect. The online site is filled with versions of Maori History just like this one.
