New York: Simon and Schuster, 1967. First Printing. Hard Cover. Publisher's full red cloth, gilt lettering on cover and spine, t.e.g. (yellow). Sylvia Constance Ashton-Warner MBE (1908 – 1984) was a New Zealand writer, poet and educator. She spent many years teaching Maori children, using stimulating and often pioneering techniques which she wrote about in her 1963 treatise Teacher and in the various volumes of her autobiography. Her success derived from a commitment to "releasing the native imagery and using it for working material" and her belief that communication must produce a mutual response in order to effect a lasting change. As a novelist, she produced several works mostly centred on strong female characters. The volume is in excellent condition, unmarked, tight, square and clean. Corners bumped, else fine. Price-clipped dust jacket shows mild shelf-wear. NEAR FINE/NEAR FINE . 8vo 8" - 9" tall. 239 pp. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket .
