A Treasure
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
A bit surreal that you can get such a treasure trove of information with such a low price. I would not have minded paying twice to get this. As you may be aware, there're very few books out there about the Polynesian languages, and those few ones available are mostly academic monographs each of which costs you about USD$300. As the previous reviewer remarks, this 300-page book is more about the cultures than the languages, but I think it can serve as a good general introduction to the Polynesian languages (to get a feel of the sounds and the word-shapes, and to know something about those who speak these fancinating languages), before you pick the particular Polynesian language you want to master and work on it with specific books.
