      About This Book

      "Despite the heavy clumsiness of her lines, the Aorai handled easily in the
      light breeze, and her captain ran her well in before he hove to just outside the
      suck of the surf. The atoll of Hikueru lay low on the water, a circle of pounded
      coral sand a hundred yards wide, twenty miles in circumference, and from three
      to five feet above high-water mark. On the bottom of the huge and glassy lagoon
      was much pearl shell, and from the deck of the schooner, across the slender ring
      of the atoll, the divers could be seen at work. But the lagoon had no entrance
      for even a trading schooner. With a favoring breeze cutters could win in through
      the tortuous and shallow channel, but the schooners lay off and on outside and
      sent in their small boats."
