This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. In many cases they are the last available, i.e. they won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

Stewart's Handbook was written by Percy S. Allen and revised annually, this one being the one covering 1922. Each year a comprehensive account of all of the Pacific Islands is included.
The book is divided into islands owned by New Zealand, France, Britain, the United States of America, and Australia. It is then divided into separate island groups. Information on each group of islands gives a comprehensive history and geography of each island. This is often accompanied by information on government officials, trade statistics, churches, business, shipping, population, customs and tariffs, exports and lists of residents. It includes a map detailing the entire Pacific.
The book is a complete resource for those interested in the history of the Pacific Islands.
It is searchable, allowing you to search for any word in the text - names, places and more.
