Description

In the 1700s and 1800s, Europeans first made contact with people across the Pacific. This book presents more than 250 of the objects they collected-now housed in the British Museum and rarely seen. The items are from a wide range of Pacific Islands including New Zealand. Illustrations include maps, excerpts from missionary publications and engravings from Captain Cooks voyages. First published April 2006.
