Description

 							
  On a long stretch of
green coast in the South Pacific, hundreds of enormous, impassive stone heads stand guard against the ravages of time,
war, and disease that have attempted over the centuries to conquer Easter Island. Steven Roger Fischer offers the first
English-language history of Easter Island in Island at the End of the World, a fascinating chronicle of adversity,
triumph, and the enduring monumentality of the island's stone guards.
  
  A small canoe with Polynesians
brought the first humans to Easter Island in 700 CE, and when boat travel in the South Pacific drastically decreased
around 1500, the Easter Islanders were forced to adapt in order to survive their isolation. Adaptation, Fischer asserts,
was a continuous thread in the life of Easter Island: the first European visitors, who viewed the awe-inspiring
monolithic busts in 1722, set off hundreds of years of violent warfare, trade, and disease—from the smallpox,
wars, and Great Death that decimated the island to the late nineteenth-century Catholic missionaries who tried to "save"
it to a despotic Frenchman who declared sole claim of the island and was soon killed by the remaining 111 islanders. The
rituals, leaders, and religions of the Easter Islanders evolved with all of these events, and Fischer is just as
attentive to the island's cultural developments as he is to its foreign invasions.
  
  Bringing his history
into the modern era, Fischer examines the colonization and annexation of Easter Island by Chile, including the Rapanui
people's push for civil rights in 1964 and 1965, by which they gained full citizenship and freedom of movement on the
island. As travel to and interest in the island rapidly expand, Island at the End of the World is an essential history
of this mysterious site.
