Seller's Description:
Good. Size: 24mo 5"-6" tall; "In 1888 I went to Torres Straits to study the coral reefs and marine zoology of the district; whilst prosecuting these studies I naturally came much into contact with the natives, and soon was greatly interested in them. I had previously determined not to study the natives, having been told that a good deal was known already about them; but I was not long in discovering that much still remained to be learned. Indeed, it might be truly said that practically nothing was known of the customs and beliefs of the natives, even by those who we had every reason to expect would have acquired that information. Such being the case, I felt it to be my duty to gather what information I could when not actually engaged in my zoological investigations. I found, even then, that the opportunities of learning about the pagan past of the natives were limited, and that it would become increasingly more difficult, as the younger men knew comparatively little of the former customs and beliefs, and the old men were dying off" (Preface). Thus begins a classic in insular Pacific ethnology and ethnography. A nice-looking exemplar of the Abridged Edition of the Thinking Man's Library of a classic take in early British ethnology and ethnography, by the Fellow of Christ's College, formerly Reader in Ethnology, Cambridge University Press. Bound in orange cloth over boards, black lettering and illustration to front cover and spine. Slight forward cock to spine, lightly toned but clean, unmarked interior. Previous owner's ink inscription at first free endpaper. 244 pp. including a full name and subject index. Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.
