"Heeni's great achievement is her unusual capacity for integrating the Maori and Pakeha worlds without compromising her essential Maoriness. Her humble demonstrations of this appear across a lifetime of service to New Zealand. The message of Heeni's life is that no matter on which side of the cultural divide we stand, we can bridge it - and accomplish that act with grace"--Page 4 of cover.
