‎LUKE, Sir Harry‎

‎Easter Island‎

‎Author: Sir Harry Luke Publisher: London: Edward Stanford, Royal Geographical Society, 1954. Item is in Original Condition, with Blue Wrappers - As Issued, Complete with All the Ads! Notes & Condition: Recounting his visit to Easter Island in April and May 1952, the widely travelled author presents a lively account of the lesser-known history of slavery and slave-driven industries which nearly devastated the famous volcanic island, including the especially ruinous guano industry raid of 1862. [In 1862, Peruvian slavers made a ruthless raid on Rapa Nui and took about a thousand islanders - including the king - to work the guano deposits on Peru's Chincha Islands. The hardships and oppressions endured by the Chinese laborers who were employed in digging guano have been descrbed as a system of the worst kind of slavery.] In contrast, he also discusses the political and economic situation at the time of his visit, including the merino sheep industry, artisans retaining one ancient tradition, and British-led efforts to support the social well-being of the inhabitants which had been terminated for political reasons by the Chilean government in 1953. Following a firsthand description of the moai monolithic human figures carved by the Rapa Nui people, and remarks on the Bird-man cult, Luke concludes by revealing that the Commonwealth was considering establishing an air route from Australia to Chile, including the construction of an air strip on Easter Island. [The most remote airport in the world, Mataveri International Airport, began its service in 1967.] Excerpts from the text: "Easter Island was a no-man's land from the time that Spain was compelled to relinquish her South American possession until 1888... for more than two generations at the mercy of the 'blackbirders,' those scourges of the Pacific who roamed from island to island, seizing by force defenceless natives to work out their plantations, mines and the like. Easter Island was one of the many islands all but ruined by these depredations." "The breach of continuity to which I have referred was brought about by the development of the guano industry on the rocky islands off the Peruvian coast, which began at the end of the 1850s. From 1859, and especially in the organized raid of December 1862, most of Easter Island's able-bodied men and its leaders, including King Kaimakoi, his son and many of the learned elders (maori), were crimped by Peruvian blackbirding expeditions and transported to those sun-scorched, glary, waterless pieces of rock whose only covering consists of deposits of stinking guano." "The fifteen who lived to see their island again introduced the smallpox to a community that had no immunity... most of those who had escaped the clutches of 'blackbirders' lost their lives in the consequent epidemic." "Adorned with clumps of eucalyptus, Persian lilac, cypress and bamboo, it is a place that leaves a lasting impression and many questions with all visitors past and present. The isolation of Easter Island, its numerous and bizarre works of art, combined with the rarety of its visitors some 50 years ago contributed to a great deal of speculation and attempted explanations of the unknown phenomena." "... I am the 'ex-Governor of the British Colonies in the Pacific' referred to in Chapter 3 of Thor Heyerdahl's fascinating book as having been present on 27 April 1947 at the launching of his most famous of rafts... I was therefore anxious... to see how far the works of Easter Island culture support his theory..." End excerpts. 8vo. 10 pages including an in-text sketch map, plus photographic plates for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Sir Harry Charles Luke KCMG GCStJ (born Harry Charles Lukach) (1884-1969) was an official in the British Colonial Office. He served in Barbados, Cyprus, Transcaucasia, Sierra Leone, Palestine, Malta, the British Western Pacific Territories and Fiji. He wrote books on several of these countries. The Chincha Islands, or Islas Chincha, are a group of three small islands 21 km (13 mi) off the southwest coast of Peru, to which they belong, near the town of Pisco. They were of interest for their extensive guano deposits, but the supplies were mostly exhausted by 1874. Peru began the export of guano (droppings of seabirds, bats, and seals) in 1840, using slave labour. Spain, not having recognized Peru's independence (until 1879), and desiring the guano profits, occupied the islands in April 1864, setting off the Chincha Islands War (1864-1866).‎

‎Première édition française traduite de l'anglais « et suivie d'observations sur les résultats probables de l'établissement de ces colonies » par C. J. Ferry, ancien professeur aux écoles d'artillerie et du génie. Présentation des colonies militaires russes et leurs « soldats cultivateurs », établies sous le règne de Nicolas Ier.« L'entretien de près d'un million de soldats était une charge trop onéreuse. Le comte Aratcheff proposa le premier de loger des soldats chez les paysans de la Couronne, de construire des villages sur un plan régulier, de leur affecter des terres, d'y établir des troupes qui vaqueraient aux travaux de la culture sans rien perdre des habitudes militaires, et de soumettre ces établissements à un code de lois spéciales et fixes, à un mode uniforme d'administration. Ce projet tendait à diminuer les frais de l'entretien des armées, en obligeant les soldats à subsister par leur travail (…) et répandait la culture sur un sol immense et fertile, qui n'attend que le travail de l'homme pour voir changer ses steppes en jardins, et ses cabanes dispersées en villes florissantes ».‎
