"This image-driven book provides a detailed view of the artwork, craftsmanship, and history of the traditional arts of Micronesia using a unique blend of contemporary and historic collections to showcase such items as carved statuary, storyboards, model canoes, woven mats, baskets and fans. Over 130 full color photos illustrate the descriptions in the text. Wavell's book is an excellent comprehensive view of the artistic and practical handiwork of the peoples of Micronesia." --Publisher.
