Te Marae: A Guide to Customs and Protocol is a comprehensive guide — complete with a glossary — to customs, protocol, and etiquette for visitors to New Zealand marae.

Hiwi and Pat Tauroa provide a detailed outline of the sequence of events that begin when visitors arrive at the gates of a marae and conclude with their departure. Appropriate behaviour is described at each stage; the spiritual background is explained; and a selection of waiata (songs), karakia (prayers), and mihi (greetings) are provided for the visitor who wishes to make correct responses.

There is also a moving personal account of the marae that have played an important role in Hiwi Tauroa's life.
