Book Description
The island nations of the South Pacific have an incredible oral history, their folklore and myths past down through the generations. This book is a fantastic collection of stories from such a vast area as the south pacific but share a common heritage. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book Description
"In Samoan folklore a fagogo is a story told mostly at night, privately, inside individual homes. It transports the audience into the folklore world of heroes and heroines, of supernatural forces acting for good or evil, but is set against a background of typical local society, making it immediately comprehensible to Samoans of all ages. The stories contain songs sung by the narrators."--Publisher's blurb.
