I found this book in Melbourne (Australia) on Monday:

It is a volume in the "World in Pictures" series, from 1882:

It is profusely illustrated with a range of amazing old engravings and it covers New Zealand (in depth), New Caledonia, the Loyalty Islands, Fiji, Tahiti, the Marquesas and Sandwich Islands, as well as Easter Island:

Reproductions of various of these illustrations will hopefully be gracing my walls in the near future...
