Items related to The Pacific World: Lands, Peoples and History of the...
The 'Pacific Rim' and the 'Pacific Century' are now commonplace terms, but the whole Pacific region has recently been opened up as a field of historical inquiry. The aim of this series is to present the historical developments and processes involved in the multi-century 'opening of the Pacific' and the linking together of the lands around and within this great ocean. Particular attention is paid to interactions among indigenous peoples on and within the rim, and the incoming peoples and powers of Asia, Europe, and America. Each volume reprints a set of key studies focusing on a defined topic, together with a new introduction and index, and is edited by an expert in the given subject. This series complements the successful Variorum series "An Expanding World", and at the same time provides a research-based resource for this important area of historical study. All 17 volumes in the series are now available, and the set price represents a significant saving on the cost of volumes purchased individually.
