I've just uploaded into YouTube my recording of chapter 35. There are a couple of significant factual errors in this chapter. The first involves the Ballarat Fly, a train line that didn't exist. A second problem relates to his remarks on patriotism. He says he visited two different memorials at Wanganui. He mistakenly states that one of the memorials is for white men who died battling Maori. The second was for those Maori that sided with the whites against their own kind. This is not the case. The battle was strictly one Maori group fighting another. There were no white combatants. As Twain mentions elsewhere in this chapter of the book, this is something the Maori enjoyed doing. The single monument was built by the white community to honor those Maori fighting against the group opposed to the white encroachment. I have some references on my web page for this chapter of his book: htt p://bscottholmes.com/content/following-equator-chapter-xxxv -- There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. http://bscottholmes.com
