Legends of the Torres Straits (Folklore History Series) Alfred C. Haddon

The Torres Straits separates Australia from Papua New Guinea left untouched by European hands until the 18th Century. It has a rich mythology weaving Papuan and Aboriginal traits. A collection of moral tales and creation myths. 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
