Description : Sultans, Spices, and Tsunamis: The Incredible Story of the World's Largest ArchipelagoIndonesia
is by far the largest nation in Southeast Asia and has the fourth
largest population in the world after the United States. Indonesian
history and culture are especially relevant today as the Island nation
is an emerging power in the region with a dynamic new leader. It is a
land of incredible diversity and unending paradoxes that has a long and
rich history stretching back a thousand years and more.
Indonesia
is the fabled "Spice Islands" of every school child's dreams—one of the
most colorful and fascinating countries in history. These are the
islands that Europeans set out on countless voyages of discovery to find
and later fought bitterly over in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries.
This was the land that Christopher Columbus sought and Magellan actually
reached and explored. One tiny Indonesian island was even exchanged for
the island of Manhattan in 1667!
This fascinating history book
tells the story of Indonesia as a narrative of kings, traders,
missionaries, soldiers and revolutionaries, featuring stormy sea
crossings, fiery volcanoes, and the occasional tiger. It recounts the
colorful visits of foreign travelers who have passed through these
shores for many centuries—from Chinese Buddhist pilgrims and Dutch
adventurers to English sea captains and American movie stars. For
readers who want an entertaining introduction to Asia's most fascinating
country, this is delightful reading.
