Hardcover. Condizione: New. Philip J Hatfield's illustrated history surveys the human impact on the Pacific islands, from the southward spread of Austronesians from Taiwan in around 3,000 BCE to the vast accumulation of plastic garbage in the ocean today. The book describes successive waves of settlement, including the voyages of early Polynesian navigators and European and American colonial expansion, and reveals the dynamic relationship between the Pacific and the rest of the world.

Philip J Hatfield's history of human engagement with the Arctic draws on the collections of the British Library and uses a great range of books, maps, photographs and prints to describe the indigenous populations of the region and their culture; European explorations, from the early voyages in search of a 'Northwest Passage' to 20th-century polar expeditions and scientific research; and the legacy of that history for the modern Arctic.
