is a coloring book, fashionably termed ‘color with knowledge.’ Between the pages you will find illustrations and text that cover the history of the island, the legends and folklore, facts about the moai, and more. The book shows illustrations that one doesn’t find even on the most thorough of Easter Island websites. Several small renderings, a Rapa Nui glossary and a journey notes page complete the book.

In 1914, Katherine Routledge (1866-1935) arrived at Easter Island, leading an anthropological and archeological expedition with her husband, William Scoresby Routledge, to investigate the origins of the island's mysterious giant statues. Although she made several critical discoveries about the Rapa Nui culture during her 17 months of research, the expeditionary force was wracked by internal tensions, and she found herself caught up in a native uprising led by a charismatic prophetess. Van Tilburg, a leading contemporary authority on the Easter Island statues, ably explains Routledge's findings
