Pacific: An Ocean of Wonders

The Pacific Ocean covers nearly a third of the globe and thus it is that islands of the Pacific are mostly surrounded by vast swathes of water. Take a look at Christmas Island, for instance, and you'll how immensely surrounded it is by the sea. The peoples and cultures of the Pacific are varied but share one thing in common: their relationship to the sea. In Pacific: An Ocean of Wonders, the story of the lands in the Pacific Ocean is told with specific objects, each illustrated, covering mapping, shipping, whaling, trading, flora and fauna.
