Long before Western man 'discovered' them, the 'People of the Sea',
as many inhabitants of the South Pacific called themselves, had a
vibrant, socially sophisticated culture in which travel on water
played an essential part. For sixty-five years James Wharram has
designed, built, and sailed craft of Polynesian double canoe form,
demonstrating that the sea, far from being a barrier between the
islands of the South Pacific, is their highway. The ocean voyages
of James and his team culminated in their circumnavigation in the
stunning 63ft 'Spirit of Gaia', during which they explored the
lands and cultures of their vessel's spiritual home - the
Polynesian islands. Inspired by the lifetime of creativity and
discovery James describes in this book, many modern 'People of the
Sea' are sailing the world's oceans, seas, coasts and rivers in
craft they have built for themselves to James Wharram designs.
