Book
'Islanders' explores the lived experience of empire in the Pacific, the last region to be contacted and colonized by Europeans following the great voyages of Captain Cook. This book tells the story of the making of empire through stories of the lives of men and women - some visionary, some vicious, and some just eccentric.
