I finally picked up Tony Horwitz's Blue Latitudes and it's a "must read" and a fun read for all South Pacific island enthusiasts. Tony retraces Captain James Cooks explorations in a travelogue style. As he travels you learn all about Cook's adventures. I second that! I really liked Blue Latitudes. A couple others I just read: Getting Stoned with Savages and The Sex Lives of Cannibals by Maartin Troost - Loved both of these. Typee by Herman Melville - a great classic - need to pick up Oomo and Mardi next.
