Captain Bligh's expedition to the Pacific was undertaken, curiously enough, with the object of transplanting the hospitable bread-fruit-tree. It was Byron's poem which first drew the close attention of the people of these islands to the archipelagoes of Polynesia, and there has been a mild stream of emigration to that part of the world ever since. It is practically impossible to compute the white population of the Southern Pacific groups. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
