Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hena or Life in Tahiti, Vol. 1 of 2
Of the Society group, Tahiti reigns paramount, pronounced by all travellers to be the garden of the Pacific, the Queen of Isles. Whether she justly merits this distinction, only those can judge who are able to bring comparison to bear. Certain it is, that Tahiti can boast of being beautifully situated, possessing several striking points of interest to the true lover of nature, and adorer of God's wondrous works. Prominent among them, the lake of Vai biria, over two thousand feet above the level of the sea, the cascade of Faatahua, to say nothing of na tural caves, etc. Etc.
