Description
March 1965 Mentor(NAL) paperback, Robert Suggs (Case for Christ for Kids), The young archaeologist-author of Island Civilization of Polynesia (Mentor, 1960) made his first trip to the Pacific Islands in 1956 as a graduate student. He returned, this time to the French governed island of Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas group, a year later. This is a chronicle of what he learned: a product of his excavations but also a product of living, with his wife, among the natives of a civilization more than two thousand years old, once flourishing, now devastated beyond hope of salvage. - Kirkus Review - from Amzon
