Book Synopsis Early Tahiti As the Explorers Saw It, 1767–1797 by : Edwin N. Ferdon
Book excerpt: For thirty years before the coming of the European missionaries, European explorers were able to observe Tahitian society as it had existed for centuries. Now Edwin Ferdon, Polynesian archaeologist and veteran of Thor Heyerdah's expedition to Easter Island, has interwoven their records to show us in fascinating detail what that society was like.
