Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Life Among the Pacific Islanders Tm; following narrative is compiled from rough notes of a Journal written during my wanderings in the Islands of the South Pacific. My object in publishing the work is to depict, with the simplicity of truth, scenes and events that exemplify the leading features of life among that peculiar race whose lot is cast on these coral-bound shores. A European who dwells among savage tribes is often com pelled, by the circumstances in which he is placed, to as sume a greatness, if he has it not; and the narrative of my personal adventures may seem, on this account, somewhat egotistical. If so, I must beg the reader to excuse a fault which any one writing the experiences of a life similar to mine in these islands must find, to some extent at least.

THE same evening we bade adieu to our good host, and with a pleasant breeze turned our head once more towards California. Dr. R., who had recently become exceedingly amiable, being satisfied with the success of our voyage, confidentially opened to me schemes for rapidly amassing great fortunes, clearly demonstrating the certainty of success. I had told him decidedly at the Marquesas that the present was the last transaction we should ever be engaged in together, and had he now opened me a path to the wealth of Croesus, I would not have joined him in it. Walking the deck one evening, I was struck by the appearance of a remarkably large and brilliant meteor, occasionally observed on these seas, which, bursting suddenly 104 CHANGING OF THE WATCH. to view in the firmament, descends slowly till lost in the ocean, illuminating the waters during its progress with a light like that of the moon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Isles of Refuge, the first book solely devoted to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, field biologist Mark Rauzon shares his extensive, first-hand knowledge of their natural history while providing an engaging narrative of his travels. Braving seasickness, bad weather, and biting bird ticks, he journeyed from Nihoa to Kure to study and photograph plants and animals for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service: rare palms, sharks, turtles, seals, and thousands of birds--finches, terns, petrels, noddies, shearwaters, curlews, boobies, tropicbirds, ducks, and albatrosses, or "gooneys," famed throughout the Pacific for their flying prowess and bizarre breeding rituals. Isolation and access restrictions have led to the recovery of many of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands' animal and plant populations to pre-exploitation levels, but they have also resulted in the general public's ignorance of the islands and their ecosystems. Informative and enjoyable, Isles of Refuge invites readers to learn more about the history and natural wonders of this invaluable resource.
