Companion volume to Islands of the Pacific and again a compression of factual and descriptive detail about the principal and outlying islands of the East Indies: -- the Moluccas, Celebes, New Guinea, Borneo, Sumatra, Java, the Lesser Sundas and Timor, and the Philippines. Essentials of topography, settlement, languages and government, animal life and vegetables, products and crops, history, and the native peoples. A handy guide for home reference to which the war background gives impetus.
