520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. “With the Lost Legion in New Zealand” by G. Hamilton-Browne is a military memoir written in the early 20th century. It follows a hard-bitten colonial officer among irregulars—the “Lost Legion”—through the New Zealand Wars, combining campaign narrative with portraits of comrades and bush fighting against Hau Hau adherents. Expect frank critiques of regular-army methods, vivid accounts of frontier warfare, and an emphasis on the often-overlooked role of colonial fighters.<br/><br/>The opening of the memoir sets out the author’s purpose: to correct English ignorance about the New Zealand campaigns and honor the colonial irregulars, asserting that the tale is essentially true. The narrative pauses to explain the Hau Hau (Pai Mārire) movement—its prophetic origins, the use of Captain Lloyd’s head as an oracle, early clashes like Sentry Hill and Mutoa, and notorious murders at Opotiki—before returning to the first-person story. We meet the narrator as “Richard Burke,” an Irish-born soldier of fortune whose career detours through duels, a stint with the Papal Zouaves, and exile to New Zealand with his loyal servant Tim Egan. Arriving in Wellington amid ongoing war, he’s urged to join colonial irregulars rather than regular troops, hears seasoned settlers’ scathing views of British generalship, and outfits himself for bush work. The section closes with his enlistment in the Forest Rangers under Colonel McDonnell at Patea and brisk sketches of his rough-and-ready messmates. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
