Tokelau: A Historical Ethnography is the outcome of over two decades of intensive and wide-ranging research in and about the three tiny Polynesian atolls of Tokelau.

The combined stories of the atolls' traditional, contact and colonial pasts are told through foreign documents which complement local narratives and records.
