This wonderful book is in really very good condition and as its a used book, normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. 297 pages, all intact and nice tight binding. Tonga is one of the few remaining kingdoms in the world and surely the smallest. It is, moreover, the only Polynesian independence unbroken, and its cultural heritage largely intact. The work begins with the myths which Tongans tell about the origins of their land and people. The early history of the group is investigated through modern archaeological techniques and a recounting of ancient legends.
