"successful by the standards of non-rugby related New Zealand history". Funny, but not really adding to the strength of the article. Could someone inform the reasoning behind this statement?119.224.7.215 (talk) 07:10, 3 August 2008 (UTC) There are a few kiwis who should know better that dont like the fact that she peeled back a lot of the kiwi myths that had become accepted as fact about the treaty. In particular some left wing historians and fellow travellers did not like the fact that she showed that Maori chiefs' clear understanding that they were giving up sovereignty and had a good idea of what this meant-a NZ united under the British sovereign. She highlighted the real politics of the 1840 era showing concerns about American interests and actions and particularly French and French Catholic interests and actions which had generally been overlooked. She exposed the old Tainui myth that they never signed the Treaty of Waitangi by reproducing the signatures and mokos of the 44 Waikato chiefs that signed. Other historians have picked up the batten and shown many other aspects of The Treaty that have been "forgotten out" of most Maori tribal narratives of the 1840s. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.62.226.243 (talk) 21:25, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
