Description

History of the Pacific Islands marks the first time in forty years that a balanced and succinct introduction to the peoples of the Pacific islands has been made avaliable to students, travellers, and scholars. Dr. Ian Campbell's informed and balanced perspective illuminates the development of the rich and fascinating variety of cultures of the Pacific islanders and their experience with intensive European contact during the last two hundred years. A History of the Pacific Islandsis a bright, lively survey of the kind not attempted since Douglas Oliver's celebrated The Pacific Islands was first published in 1951.
