An account of the natives of the Tonga Islands in the South Pacific Ocean : with an original grammar and vocabulary of their language compiled and arranged from the extensive communications of Mr William Mariner, several years resident in those islands by John Martin, M.D. /edited by Nigel Statham and Ian C. Campbell. "John Martin (1789-1869) was a London-based, Edinburgh-educated physician interested in anthropological matters. This is his only book. He was inspired to write it by a chance encounter with its subject, William Mariner (1791-1853) who spent four years (1806-1810) in Tonga, in the South Pacific, one of the earliest European residents at a time before European influence disturbed or modified that society. Mariner, an extraordinarily mature and perceptive youth, became thoroughly imbued with Tongan language and culture as the adopted son of the most powerful chief in Tonga. Martin's intelligent engagement with Mariner resulted in a compelling narrative and a comprehensive account of Tongan society which became a classic. Often celebrated as an extraordinary real-life adventure story, it is a pioneering work of anthropology, and for 200 years it has been a primary and authoritative source for research into Tongan history and culture"--Provided by publisher. 2022. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 305.899/482

Discovering the North-West Passage : the four-year Arctic odyssey of H.M.S. Investigator and the McClure Expedition /Glenn M. Stein. The story of HMS Investigator and the voyage undertaken by Vice-Admiral Robert McClure (1807-1873) in 1850-1854 to search for the missing Franklin expedition which had disappeared in 1848. McClure was born in Ireland and joined the Royal Navy in 1824, obtaining his first polar experience in HMS Terror in 1836. He joined an early expedition to find the Franklin expedition in 1848 and then in 1850 accompanied HMS Enterprise, under the command of Richard Collinson, on a further search. The two ships were separated in a storm, never to meet up again. McClure continued through the Bering Strait but was eventually forced to abandon the ship after she became icebound in Mercy Bay in 1853. The crew continued overland finally meeting up with HMS Resolute and HMS Intrepid, also searching for Franklin from the opposite direction. The text is supported by a detailed bibliography, notes and appendices which include the crew list of HMS Investigator and detail the creation of the Polar Medal.

Johnny : the legend and tragedy of General Sir Ian Hamilton /by John Philip Jones. "The Gallipoli campaign was launched in April 1915 in an effort to knock Turkey out of the war. The commander, General Sir Ian Hamilton was at fault in the way he conducted his campaign. This book examines why Hamilton failed at Gallipoli and shows how, in spite of that failure and it being his last command, he became a well respected military prophet who made many several perceptive predictions about the future of warfare."--Provided by the publisher. 2012. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 92HAMILTON
