Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Vikings of the Sunrise ranks as a masterpiece of Pacific studies. From the pen of one of the greatest Maori thinkers and writers of his generation, the settlement of the Pacific Ocean comes to life. The book ranges across the Pacific Ocean and the people who populated it, considering their physical and spiritual origins, and the ships they built to conquer this vast territory. It weighs evidence for different routes, retells myths of migration including the Maui series, recounts the author's visits to islands and atolls across the South Pacific, and overall establishes the 'vikings' of the Pacific among the greatest-ever ocean voyagers. First published in 1938, Vikings of the Sunrise is here reproduced in an enhanced facsimile edition, including photos and maps compiled by the author on his voyages, and a new foreword by anthropologist Paora (Paul) Tapsell. Oratia Books is pleased to bring Vikings of the Sunrise back into print for modern readers as part of our NZ Classics series. The author Te Rangi Hiroa (Sir Peter Buck, 18771951) led a busy and distinguished life - variously as an MP, leader of the Young Maori party, doctor, medical officer for Maori health, anthropologist and director of the Bishop Museum, Hawai'i. He was knighted in 1946 for services to science and literature. His best-known books are Vikings of the Sunrise and The Coming of the Maori - One of the greatest accounts ever of Pacific settlement- Author ranks as one of the leading thinkers of his generation- Facsimile edition with new preface in New Zealand Classics series Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
