Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The exploration and colonization of the Pacific is a remarkable episode in human prehistory. Early sea-going explorers had no knowledge of Pacific geography, no instruments for measuring time and none for exploration. Forty years of modern archaeology, experimental voyages in rafts, and computer…simulations of voyages have produced an normous range of literature on this controversial subject. This book represents a major advance in knowledge of the settlement of the Pacific by suggesting that exploration was rapid, purposeful and undertaken systematically, and that navigation methods progressively improved.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. (no dust jacket) [modest wear to extremities, some soiling to edges of text block, spine slightly turned; binding solid, internally quite clean]. (pen and ink drawings, one map) Something of an adventure-novelization of incidents presented by Stefansson in his 1913 book "My Life wi…th the Eskimo." Stefansson, a U.S.-based, Canadian-born anthropologist of Icelandic extraction, eventually became a somewhat controversial figure, but in earlier times (in particular between 1906 and 1912) was responsible for leading important explorations of the Canadian Arctic region, and gained a lot of attention for his observations and writings about the life and culture of the Copper Inuit, the so-called "blond Eskimos". Illustrated by Geoffrey Grier (illustrator).

Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Cover shows very slight signs of use, but is unmarked and undamaged. All pages clean, crisp and fresh. Overall, very sound and presentable. Publisher's note: The exploration and colonisation of the Pacific is a remarkable episode of human prehistory. Early sea-going explorers had no prior knowled…ge of Pacific geography, no documents to record their route, no metal, no instruments for measuring time and none for exploration. Forty years of modern archaeology, experimental voyages in rafts, and computer simulations of voyages have produced an enormous range of literature on this controversial and mysterious subject. This book represents a major advance in knowledge of the settlement of the Pacific by suggesting that exploration was rapid and purposeful, undertaken systematically, and that navigation methods progressively improved. Using an innovative model to establish a detailed theory of navigation, Geoffrey Irwin claims that rather than sailing randomly downwind in search of the unknown, Pacific Islanders expanded settlement by the cautious strategy of exploring upwind, so as to ease their safe return. The author has tested this hypothesis against the chronological data from archaeological investigation, with a computer simulation of demographic and exploration patterns and by sailing throughout the region himself.
