Excerpt from Rambles in Polynesia Where all partake the earth without dispute, And bread itself is gathered as a fruit. Captain Bligh's expedition to the Pacific was undertaken, curiously enough, with the object of transplanting the hospitable bread-fruit-tree. It was Byron's poem which first drew the close attention of the people of these islands to the archipelagoes of Polynesia, and there has been a mild stream of emigration to that part of the world ever since. It is practically impossible to compute the white population of the Southern Pacific groups. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Rambles in Polynesia In his enchanting poem 'The Island,' Lord Byron gave a romantic rendition of the famous adventure of the Bounty mutineers, writing with strange accuracy about those fair Pacific lands - Where all partake tho earth without dispute, And bread itself is gathered as a fruit. Captain Bligh's expedition to the Pacific was undertaken, curiously enough, with the object of transplanting the hospitable bread-fruit-tree. It was Byron's poem which first drew the close attention of the people of these islands to the archipelagos of Polynesia, and there has been a mild stream of emigration to that part of the world ever since. It is practically impossible to compute the white population of the Southern Pacific groups. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
