Pacific atlas
p. 107 · Read in the full issue
Although it has been designed for schools in the Islands, A Descriptive Atlas of the Pacific Islands, recently published in New Zealand by A. H. & A. W.
Reed, will probably have a larger audience that that. It is the first time that anything of this sort has been attempted.
It covers the main groups of the Pacific as well as Australia and New Zealand, giving a short descriptive account of each group, with relevant statistics.
The atlas was compiled by T. F. Kennedy, who is Inspector of Island Schools in the NZ Education Dept. The 25 pages of black and white maps were drawn by Julius Petro and Lionel Fordyke and cover not only land masses but rainfall and distribution of population, etc. 64 pages; $2.50.
