ReviewsThe principle that undergirds the work is seeing history through the eyes of its participants, not from an outsiders' vantage point. "The real challenge of global history is to write from other perspectives, not write about other places from your own particular world view," she writes. "It is only through this approach that any depth of understanding can be gained." How did South Polynesians view their new world, their whenua hou? Madi Williams' book provides a welcome glimpse.

SynopsisA historical overview and thematic examination of Polynesia (especially New Zealand and its outlying islands), 900-1600., This book provides a concise overview of the history of Polynesia, focusing on New Zealand and its outlying islands, during the period 900-1600. It provides a thematic examination of Polynesia to avoid placing the region's history into an inaccurate, linear Western chronology. The themes of movement and migration, adaptation and change, and development and expansion offer the optimal means of understanding Polynesia during this time. Through this innovative and unique perspective on Polynesian history, which has not been previously undertaken, the reader is encouraged to think about regions outside Europe in relation to the premodern period.
