As such, the Parihaka legend ranks alongside America's 'Wounded Knee' and South Africa's 'Sharpeville' as part of a world-wide offensive against the past, present and future of European-descended peoples.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDr Kerry Bolton delves deeply into the huge body of extant historical documentation, contemporary to Parihaka's founding prophet, and lays the entire, lame-fantasy bare for all to see.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kerry Bolton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1910881686\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781910881682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black House Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.29d","brand":"Kerry Bolton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125546184959,"sku":"9781910881682","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d1057841-378b-44c8-b265-efae594f5513.jpg?v=1687443237","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-parihaka-cult-kerry-bolton-9781910881682","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
