Journeys Towards Progress

Taking a unique look at the Oceania region through the lens of geography, this valuable collection spans 50 years of close observation and study of the emerging world of 20th-century Oceania and the Pacific Rim. Surveying the social contexts of countries like Fiji, Kiribati, and Papua New Guinea--at both village and government levels--this exploration puts these particular histories in wider contexts and examines the potential future of Oceania.
