Ebook About
The author of The Great Railway Bazaar explores the South Pacific by kayak: “This exhilarating epic ranks with [his] best travel books” (Publishers Weekly).   In one of his most exotic and adventuresome journeys, travel writer Paul Theroux embarks on an eighteen-month tour of the South Pacific, exploring fifty-one islands by collapsible kayak. Beginning in New Zealand's rain forests and ultimately coming to shore thousands of miles away in Hawaii, Theroux paddles alone over isolated atolls, through dirty harbors and shark-filled waters, and along treacherous coastlines.   Along the way, Theroux meets the king of Tonga, encounters street gangs in Auckland, and investigates a cargo cult in Vanuatu. From Australia to Tahiti, Fiji, Easter Island, and beyond, this exhilarating tropical epic is full of disarming observations and high adventure.

Book The Happy Isles of Oceania: Paddling the Pacific Review :



I read this as I like travel logs about small boats. Theroux is an excellent writer, and it's fun to get lost in the details of this trip that covers all of the major stopping points in Oceana. The only reason I have left off the fifth star is that as a traveler and an ethnographer, he tends to form a negative view or at least a narrative that focuses on the negatives of each culture he encounters. After a while, the book starts seeming like a catalog of "what is wrong with these people and this place". A great deal of that is appropriate, however, and the book is a definite knockdown of any dreamy ideas of "Gaugin's Paradise" in favor of the brutal realities of how the modern world is affecting or has affected the places and cultures of Oceana as of the late '80s. It also presents some pretty good evidence as to why Thor Heyerdahl's theories about migration are dead wrong.
This is a great book for the adventurous traveler who wishes to learn about the customs and realities of Oceania. Bringing a folding German kayak, Paul Theraux paddles a good number of waters off the islands of NZ, Australia, Easter Island, Papua New Guinea, the Solomons, Fiji, the Cooks, Tonga, Hawaii and others. Having traveled and explored many of these same places, sometimes renting a sit-on kayak locally, I found the book fascinating from an author and traveler who has a keen sense of adventure, humor, observation skills, and courage for engaging locals and finding out about their way of life and history. To make a long story short, this is an exceptional book by one of the best travel authors in the business. The South Pacific in particular still has the allure and attraction of long ago. I am so glad that I was able to visit in the 1980's and 1990's.
