Excerpt from the prologue: "In double canoes they came, more than 1,300 years ago, searching northward into an unknown sea. Sailing on strange winds, paddling through doldrum calms, braving high seas and storms, they persisted in their quest for new land. Behind them lay the isles of the South Pacific which their ancestors had discovered centuries earlier."
