From Polynesia's jungle-cloaked specks of land to the expanses of the Australian deserts, from the mountain-dwelling Melanesian tribes of New Guinea to the paradise-like atolls described by the first European explorers as the "Garden of Eden", this title opens up the wonders of the Southern Seas.
A full colour journey from Polynesia's jungle-cloaked specks of land to the infinite expanses of the Australian deserts: From the modern,multi cultural societies of Australia and New Zealand to the languid rhythms of Southern Seas natives. From the mountain-dwelling Melanesian tribes of New Guinea, steeped in their primitive customs, to the paradise-like atolls described by the first European explorers as the Garden of Eden. A voyage of discovery, brimming with myths, rituals, dances, sculpture and tattoos of some of the earth's most widely disparate peoples, against the deep blue backdrop of the greatest of the oceans. In full colour: a beautiful large format book with 450 colour photographs and antique prints.
