In the 400 years from Magellan's entrance into Pacific waters to 1920, the lives of the people of the South Pacific were utterly transformed. Pacific people died from exotic diseases from Europe and America. Missionaries changed the belief systems and lives. By 1920 every island in the South Seas had been claimed as a colony or protectorate of a power such as Britain, France or the US. The coming of westerners, as this book points out, was not entirely negative, as head-hunting, cannibalism, chronic warfare, human sacrifice, and other practices were diminished.
