hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mi…ll. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

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 comprehensiv…e 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.' (Publisher's blurb).

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 presen…ts 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.
