Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pi Eta Society, of Harvard University Presents the Late Mr. Kidd, Musical Play in Three Acts "Isolated foreign ethnic groups, apparent exceptions to the rule of race homogeneity within geographic divisions, are never of strict natural origin. Tambelo (or Tambelan) Island of the Malay Archipelago affords a striking instance of such artificial extraction. In this island principality a distinct strain of Caucasian blood was discovered in the "natives," some of whom were nearly pure white. Recent discoveries show this anomaly to be explained by the early establishment here of a pirate colony preying on the commerce of the British and Dutch East India Companies before effective protection could be afforded these projects by the home governments. The peculiar position of Tambelo Island in the China Sea, at once isolated and hazardous of approach by virtue of encircling coral reefs, yet within striking distance of French Indo-China, British India, and the Straits Settlements and accessible to the mariner versed in its secret channels, readily corroborates this hypothesis."
