William Crossan's Otago experience as a versatile storeman with a solid work ethic helped him survive on the Melanesian frontier where he encountered conflicting clans, cannibalism, cheating traders, and co-operative entrepreneurial big men. His diary provides many glimpses into Makiran society as it encountered new ideas, new employment, and western technology. It is a welcome addition to the sparse record of these cryptic copra traders seeking fortunes on the cusp of indigenous tradition and incoming colonialism. 607 $aNew Zealand$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aSolomon Islands$xHistory$y19th century 676 $a993.02 702 $aBayliss-Smith$b Tim 702 $aBennett$b Judith A. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910137630703321 996 $aAn Otago storeman in Solomon Islands$91970212 997 $aUNINA
