A Shark Going Inland Is My Chief: The Island Civilization of Ancient Hawai'i by: Kirch, Patrick Vinton

Blue paper covers are clean and bright, as are interior pages. Binding is solid. Contains B&W photography throughout, as well as a bind-in halfway through with full-color photography. This lively, accessible chronicle works back from 1778, when the British explorers encountered an island civilization governed by rulers who could not be gazed upon by common people. Interweaving anecdotes from his own widespread travel and extensive archaeological investigations into the broader historical narrative, Kirch shows how the early Polynesian settlers of Hawai'i adapted to this new island landscape and created highly productive agricultural systems.
