Softcover. Zustand: Near Fine. HISTORY -The Pacific Islands remain for most people a region of obscurity or puzzlement.The attention of news media is attracted by atypical events such as political violence that contradict the peaceful tourist image of sun, sea and smiling faces. Journalists, travellers, business people and the general public have few paths to access specialised knowledge about the complex and changing âneighbourhoodâ to New Zealandâs north and Australiaâs northeast.Ian Campbellâs 'History of the Pacific Islands', first published in 1989, served this purpose for many years, and its successor, 'Worlds Apart', has proven to be equally serviceable, bringing into focus the past and present of this diverse and endlessly misunderstood region.This concise and readable narrative has now been revised to bring the story of the island world â" from itsfirst settlement by raft and canoe voyagers, through the period of western contact and acculturation â" up to 2010.As with its earlier versions, this book has been written not for fellow academics, but for the many people who want to know âwhat happenedâ. 360 p. : maps ; 23 cm. #180926 Previously published as: A history of the Pacific Islands.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 3rd Edition. Island Kingdom Tonga Ancient and Modern By Ian Campbell. Publisher: Canterbury University Press, 2015. 3rd edition. 321 pages, illustrated. Very good softback, no inscriptions, some creasing, edge-wear, minor marks, slight lean to spine. The island kingdom of Tonga, situated in the South Pacific about a third of the way between New Zealand and Hawai'i, was probably the first part of Polynesia to be settled by humans, about 3,000 years ago. Periods of isolation alternated with periods of regular contact with neighbouring island groups while Tongan culture developed its distinctive variant of the Polynesian theme. Modern Tonga was moulded by dramatic changes in the nineteenth century during which the population converted to Christianity, and a formal state was established under a written constitution. As a result of benign British supervision, Tonga was the only Pacific archipelago not to be formally controlled by a European power. After two or three generations of tranquil consolidation, late in the twentieth century a vigorous and ambitious king forced his country into a trajectory of economic development and rapid social change, which eventually created a demand for political reform and democratisation. Tonga is less isolated, more prosperous and yet seemingly more troubled now than at any time in its history. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK.

Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Zustand: FINE. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: FINE. 464pp. Large 8vo, Sewn binding in navy cloth, gilt spine lettering. FINE in FINE jacket. Shipped professionally in a box. 'John Martin (1789-1869) was a London-based, Edinburgh-educated physician interested in anthropological matters. This comprehensive account of Tongan Society is his only book. He was inspired to write it by a chance encounter with its subject, William Mariner (1791-1853) who spent four years (1806-1810) in Tonga, in the South Pacific, at a time before any substantial European influence disturbed or modified that society. Mariner, an extraordinarily mature and perceptive youth, became thoroughly imbued with Tongan language and culture as the adopted son of the most powerful chief in Tonga. Martin's intelligent engagement with Mariner resulted in a compelling narrative and a comprehensive account of Tongan society which, together with the accompanying grammar and vocabulary, became a classic. Often celebrated as an extraordinary real-life adventure story, it is a pioneering work of anthropology, and for 200 years it has been a primary and authoritative source for research into Tongan history and culture.'

Pub Year 2022, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> In An Account of the Natives of the Tonga Islands in the South Pacific Ocean, John Martin presents a comprehensive examination of Tongan society, derived from his interactions with William Mariner, a young man who spent four formative years in Tonga during the early 19th century. This pivotal work, Martin's sole book, is informed by Mariner's deep immersion in Tongan language and culture, as he lived as the adopted son of a prominent chief. The narrative captures Mariner's unique experiences and insights before any significant European influence altered the society.The account not only offers a rich description of Tongan life but also serves as a pioneering anthropological text. Martin?s detailed approach encompasses extensive grammar and vocabulary accompanying the narrative, making it a significant resource for understanding the linguistic aspects of the culture. The work has been celebrated for its vivid storytelling that reads almost as an adventure, reflecting Mariner's extraordinary maturity and perceptive observations.For over two centuries, this volume has stood as an authoritative resource for scholars studying Tongan history and culture. Its blend of personal narrative and scholarly detail provides a vital glimpse into a society at a critical historical juncture, making it essential reading for anyone interested in anthropology, linguistics, and Pacific island cultures.
