The term Polynesia refers to a cultural and geographical area in
the Pacific Ocean, bound by what is commonly referred to as the
Polynesian Triangle, which consists of Hawai'i in the north, New
Zealand in the southwest, and Easter Island in the southeast.
Thousands of islands are scattered throughout this area, most of
which are currently included in one of the modern island states of
American Samoa, Cook Islands, French Polynesia, Hawai'i, New
Zealand, Samoa, Tonga, Tokelau, Tuvalu, and Wallis and Futuna. The
third edition of the Historical Dictionary of Polynesia greatly
expands on the previous editions through a chronology, an
introductory essay, an expansive bibliography, and over 400
cross-referenced dictionary entries on significant persons, events,
places, organizations, and other aspects of Polynesian history from
the earliest times to the present. Appendixes of the major islands
and atolls within Polynesia, the rulers and administrators of the
13 major island states, and basic demographic information of those
states are also included.
