Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. Glossy hardcover in tidy condition inside and out. No inscriptions or markings. Just a couple of spots of foxing. 299pp. The South Seas, as this region used to be called, conjured up images of adventure, belles and savages, romance and fabulous fortunes, but the long voyages of discovery and exploration of the vast Pacific Ocean were really an exercise in amazing logistics, navigation, hard grit, shipwreck and pure luck.

Postcards do reveal more about European perceptions and preconceived notions of the tropics, than about the indigenous subjects instructed carefully by the photographer. But there were contrary readings, and many postcards diverged from the conventional framing established during the early colonial era. Many photographers, critical of their own practice, sought out the unusual and uncharacteristic and many frustratingly found that postcard editors far away used captions to embellish their images with meanings not intended at the time the photograph was taken. Postcards from Oceania is about the colonial era, but also about how audiences defined the Pacific amidst the postcard deluge of belles, bananas, port towns, pirogues, and plantations.…
