First published: January 1, 2001
Description: Te Moan Nui traces the discoveries of European navigators, whaling ships, slave raiders and missionaries and finally, scientists, artists and writers, and the modern-day inhabitants of these far-flun islands. The rare opportunities to visit these remote islands is in itself fascinating, but the sotries originating in these perilous waters are incredible.
