Excerpt from An Account of the Polynesian Race, Vol. 1 of 2: Its OriginsThus much, though reluctantly, I have felt bound to say in vindication of my right to be the spokesman of a people whom no one knew till a hundred years ago, and whom no one even now recognises as a chip of the same block from which the Hindu, the Iranian, and the indo-euro pean families were fashioned.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Account of the Polynesian Race, Vol. 2: Its Origins and Migrations and the Ancient History of the Hawahan People to the Times of Kamehameha IIn issuing this, the second volume of "An Account of the Polynesian Race," &c., and the "Ancient History of the Hawaiian People," the author gratefully acknowledges the kind reception which the first volume received. It was a hazardous undertaking to publish a work of that kind ten thousand miles away from the author's residence, with no opportunity of revising the sheets as they came from the press, or preparing an index when the volume was finished. The well-known ability and care of his publishers, the world-known Messrs. Trubner & Co., grappled bravely and successfully with the difficulties of a MS. which, owing to peculiar circumstances, had not been clean copied for the press before it was sent away. To Stephen Spencer, Esq., formerly Chief Clerk to the Interior Department of the Hawaiian Government, and now residing in London, the author is under great obligations for the kind and vicarious supervision that he gave to the proof-reading, and for the thoroughly faultless rendition of the Polynesian words, phrases, and entire chants occurring in the work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Account of the Polynesian Race, Its Origins and Migrations and the Ancient History of the Hawaiian People to the Times of Kamehameha I, Vol. 3: Comparative Vocabulary of the Polynesian and Indo-European Languages Undoubtedly the Polynesian, as it is the most remote, is the purest and most typical representative of the family. Many considerations combine to prove the great anti guity of the epoch when the Polynesians left the East Indian Archipelago.
