Levesque's Summary
Volume 20 contains 3 books, bound as the last volume of the first series of volumes on the history of the central and north Pacific areas, as follows:
Book 1 Bibliography of Micronesia. Definitive edition of an annotated bibliography of printed works about Micronesia arranged in chronological order with an emphasis on history, plus general works, and reference works on the same subjects.
Book 2 Ships Through Micronesia. Definitive edition of a chronological list of ships that visited Micronesia, from Magellan’s time to modern times.
Book 3 Cumulative Index to Volumes 1-19. Definitive edition, arranged alphabetically, from A to Z.
The thousand of documents published in this first series have successfully de-bunked many myths in the history of the Pacific islands, notably rectifying the information about first European discoveries of countless islands in the central and northwest Pacific. This encyclopedia contains high-quality texts and illustrations, tables, appendices, diagrams, reference maps, and full indexes. The documents were presented in chronological sequence, and I have effectively recreated this history from primary-source documents, as originally planned. The texts have been extensively annotated, and cross-referenced.
