The reflections on their lives in law of pioneer black women lawyers
The full story of the gifted but troubled R. A. K. Mason is told for the first time in this accessible biography.

The legendary story of how Mason dumped 200 copies of his first book, The Beggar, into Auckland harbor in disappointment, disgust, or despair because no one would buy it is explored as a symbol of a time--the 1920s and 1930s--when a true, vital, native literature struggled to be written or heard in a provincial and puritanical country.
