Ross Holmes. Second edition, 2026.

For more than sixty years there has been a silence at the centre of Cook Islands customary law. This volume traces, decision by decision, what the Land Titles Court did from 1902, and measures it against the law it replaced. It is written without rancour: its purpose is not to condemn the judges but to supply what they lacked.
