Originally written as a journal, the book that evolved from these notes went beyond an amusing traveler-centered description of his experiences to provide a more theme-based narrative, adding discussions of the South Seas culture, language, traditions, and society: anthropology, history, and sociology, together with personal impressions and anecdotes. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosimo Classics","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47591071907991,"sku":"9781646794546","price":3125.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781646794546.webp?v=1774971501","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/in-the-south-seas-being-an-account-of-experiences-and-observations-in-the-marquesas-paumotus-and-gilbert-islands-in-the-course-of-two-c-9781646794546","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
