Event details

Join us for local historian John P Adam’s lecture on how peace, love, and protest have played out against Puketāpapa’s landscape.

His extensive research on Puketāpapa’s landscape uniquely positions him to discuss how it transformed from a productive wetland for Māori, to a farming ‘idyll’ for settlers and a developed suburb for multicultural communities.

John will examine how ‘peace’ could sometimes be tenuous, with pressures and protests exerted on it from human and natural forces.

Presented by: Auckland Council Libraries
