Description:There are more than 20,000 islands in the Pacific; fewer than half of them are inhabited. Some are too small or too barren to sustain human life, others are subject to the vagaries of the tides or without fresh water.

From celestial navigation and the sweep of the ocean currents, the hardships of survival and settlement, to the rich tapestry of Pacific Island customs and traditions, Mystery Islands shows how new archaeological findings have changed our entire picture of when and how the Pacific islands were first discovered and settled, beginning over 3,000 years ago.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
