Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Darkness to Light in Polynesia: With Illustrative Clan Songs A Few years ago (at the suggestion of Sir George Grey, K.C.B., and Sir James Hector K.C.M.G., M.D., etc.), the New Zealand Government printed the earlier part of the present volume for the use of scientists. A few copies were forwarded to the great public libraries of the United Kingdom. In New Zealand itself considerable interest was thus awakened by the discovery of the near kinship of the Hervey Islanders and the Maoris. It has occurred to me, that intelligent friends of Christian missions might be interested in comparing the past with the present The present volume is intended to assist such an inquiry. In 1888 Her Majesty´s Government assumed a protectorate over the group of islands known as the Hervey Islands, situated in the South Pacific Ocean between 18 and 22 south latitude, and 156 and 160 west longitude. Frederick Moss, Esq., has been appointed the first British Resident. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
