Books - Folklore, History, Culture
I’m sailing to FP in the spring and plan to spend a year cruising the big and remote islands.
I love reading about a new place before I go, not only “things to do” and guidebooks but also culture, folklore, histories. Both nonfiction and fiction (folklore/religion) and archeological are encouraged.
So far I’ve found:
Sea People: The Puzzle of Polynesia by Christina Thompson
Tales of Polynesia by Yiling Changues
Tahiti Beyond the Postcard by Miriam Kahn
I would love some more suggestions Thanks!
