The South Seas (Melanesia) (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from The South Seas (Melanesia)
A long way away from England and Europe, far away from civilization and the present day - almost, as it were, in the times of Mr. Punch's Prehistoric Peeps - lie The Black Islands. Geographically they are labelled Melanesia, but if you know any Greek - and perhaps, like the author, you don't - you will understand that that designation and Black Islands amount to pretty much the same thing. But you will not understand so readily, perhaps, why they are The Black Islands.
