Synopsis
If you center a globe on Kiritimati (Christmas Island), all you see around it is a vast expanse of ocean. Islands of various sizes float in view while glimpses of continents encroach on the fringes, but this is a view dominated by water. The immense stretch of the Pacific Ocean is inhabited by a diverse array of peoples and cultures bound by a common thread: their relationship with the sea. In this volume, the rich history of the Pacific is explored through specific objects, each one beautifully illustrated, from the earliest human engagement with the Pacific through to the modern day. Entries cover mapping, trade, whaling, flora and fauna, and the myriad vessels used to traverse the ocean. This visually stunning publication highlights the importance of an ocean that covers very nearly a third of the surface of the globe, and which has dramatically shaped the world and people around it. A new look at this fascinating ocean, considering the diversity of culture beyond the familiar viewpoint of colonial history.- Fully illustrated with maps, paintings, artefacts and photographs, with some items from the Library collection reproduced for the very first time.- Beautifully packaged in landscape format and cloth quarter-binding, If you center a globe on Kiritimati (Christmas Island), all you see around it is a vast expanse of ocean.

WOW! The condition is incredible for the price I paid - I thank the seller for accepting my offer as I'm poor and need all the help I can get in obtaining the more expensive otogizoshi & other medieval & ancient Japanese Literature that I'm looking for, so this seller really was generous with the price and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Packaged super safe, really fast shipping, and the book is like new, so much better than the Ad's description! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SELLER FOR SURE!!

Book arrived earlier than expected and was packaged well. Book was in better condition than described and seller was very helpful when I had questions. Best of all, price was extremely reasonable. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had with any seller on Ebay.
