The Chatham Islands lie some 860 km east of Christchurch, surrounded by the South Pacific Ocean. There could rarely be a more isolated place, in the 19th and early 20th century, for young women to travel to as the wives of early settlers or government officials, or to live as children. The beauty of the islands could be appreciated and there were many natural resources available, but it must have been a challenge to set up a comfortable home, and to become self-sufficient and self-reliant in such a remote place. Most met that challenge fully, caring for husband and family, assisting with station and community activities, welcoming residents travelling across the island and visitors bringing news from the outside world. This book describes aspects of life on the Chatham Islands, from the 1840s to the 1930s, though which the women portrayed lived. Included are profiles of Anna Dorothea Regnault (resident 1846-1901), Maggie Regnault (1867-1927), Katherine Pattisson (1872-1877), Mabel Chudleigh (1881-1907), Sophia Moore (1884-1891), Louisa, Ruth and Madeline Cannon; Marion Danvers (1866-1906), Daisy Blyth (1874-1945), Mate Harvey, Marion Gascoyne (1891-1897) and Joyce Holmes (1938-2000).

'Extraordinary... A fascinating and intelligent book.' Sunday Times New islands are being built at an unprecedented rate whether for tourism or territorial ambition, while many islands are disappearing or fragmenting because of rising sea levels. It is a strange planetary spectacle, creating an ever-changing map which even Google Earth struggles to keep pace with. In The Age of Islands, explorer and geographer Alastair Bonnett takes the reader on a compelling and thought-provoking tour of the world's newest, most fragile and beautiful islands and reveals what, he argues, is one of the great dramas of our time. From a 'crannog', an ancient artificial island in a Scottish loch, to the militarized artificial islands China is building in the South China Sea; from the disappearing islands that remain the home of native Central Americans to the ritzy new islands of Dubai; from Hong Kong and the Isles of Scilly to islands far away and near: all have urgent stories to tell.

Solomon Islands is a sovereign state in Oceania, east of Papua New Guinea, consisting of nearly one thousand islands. During Roger's 10 year stay as a doctor there, the islands progressed through being a British Protectorate, to self-government and finally gained independence.This book is a story of these years, offering descriptions and tales on most of the islands, remote areas that few people ever get to see. It records a way of life that has all but disappeared, and segues with Roger’s personal story; a tragic air crash that left him bringing up two young children on the islands.Many facets of these islands impinge on the present day world, from their contribution in sport, music and the origin of one of the most evocative of places, Bali Hai. The main island, Guadalcanal, was a household name during World War II as it became the site for the Battle of Guadalcanal, a 6-month conflict between Allied forces and Japanese troops. Solomoni provides a rare and interesting insight into an unseen world. A variety of vivid photographs illustrate important events and the beauty of the islands. It will appeal to travellers, readers with an interest in anthropology and those with a medical interest.
