Author: Nicholas Thomas

Description: An incisive, evocative history of the experience of an empire in the Oceanic world This compelling book explores the lived experience of an empire in the Pacific, the last region to be contacted and colonized by Europeans following the great voyages of Captain Cook. Unlike conventional accounts that emphasize confrontation and the destruction of indigenous cultures, Islanders reveal there was gain as well as loss, survival as well as suffering, and invention as well as exploitation.
