Such a fascinating book! I really appreciate the pains Alpers takes in the introduction to give proper foundation to Western readers: the characteristics of the islands, its flora and fauna, and it's anthropological similarities to ancient Greece. Most admirable though is his determination to "let Polynesia describe herself".
