South Pacific Islands

Description:
Behind the superficial public image of sand, palms and clear water lies the real South Pacific - a fascinating mix of cultures overlain by European invasion. Specialist authors trace the history, geography and botany of the Pacific, discuss the similarities and differences of the languages, music, dance and handicrafts, follow the adventures of the whalers, and trace recent developments in farming systems and self government. This simple, authoritative introduction tot he Pacific makes a visit not only irresistible but worthwhile.
