One Tree House brings this much-loved, award-winning and historic children's book to a new generation of readers.

Based on a true story ...
This is a powerful story in which the bitter clash of two cultures is explored from the point of view of a young boy who describes the horror that led to the massacre of those on the sailing ship the Boyd. A handful of pākehā were left alive, and it is their enthralling story which unfolds in this tale of tragedy.
