Book Synopsis Tattooing in the Marshall Islands by : Dirk R. Spennemann
Book excerpt: "The first scholarly compilation on the history, progression and demise of the traditionally intricate art of Marshallese tattooing. This book richly documents this type of tattooing as an art, describing its incredible ornamental and elaborate execution. In addition, the text also portrays the conventional social context in which tattooing needs to be seen, along with where and why tattoos are specifically placed."--Publisher description.
