PATHWAY OF THE BIRDS

Pathway of the Birds explores a neglected epoch of world history, one that saw Polynesians expand their territory across the world’s largest ocean. 

In one of the most expansive and rapid phases of human migration in prehistory, Polynesians reached and settled nearly every archipelago scattered across some 28 million square kilometres of the Pacific Ocean, and area now known as East Polynesia.

through a fascinating synthesis of diverse research and viewpoints, detailed maps and diagrams, and over 350 photographs, Andrew Crowe conveys some of the skills, innovation, resourcefulness and courage of the people that drove this extraordinary feat of maritime exploration.
