Indigenous Navigation and Voyaging in the Pacific : A Reference Guide Hardback

Description

How have Pacific Islanders voyaged across the vast ocean around them and navigated their small crafts from one distant place to another for thousands of years?

This reference guide describes the literature on indigenous navigation and voyaging in the Pacific. The annotated bibliography covers journal articles and books written in several languages, including English, German, Japanese, French, Spanish, and Dutch, pointing to materials of both recent and early origin.

The entries are arranged alphabetically by author under Pacific (General), Polynesia, Micronesia, and Melanesia chapters.

Indexes to authors, geographic areas, and to subjects provide the reader with easy access to the entries and to a wealth of interesting research on a complex subject with many perplexing questions.
