The Classical Era
Most of the stories In "South Pacific Adventure", edited by Olaf Ruhen and published by Sun Books as a paperback, are vintage pieces from the classical period of Pacific writing.
Herman Melville, Louis Becke, Robert Louis Stevenson and Jack London are all represented in the 13 long short-stories that describe the Pacific as it was rather than as it s. Each of the stories is intro duced by a short background piece by the editor. The book should have instant appeal for those who take their hunt for Pacificana seriously.
