Really cool little book. I’d recommend it to anyone interested in Easter island/Polynesia or the environment or even if you like Jared diamond.
I thought it was well set out and he used every page well. All unimportant crap was cut out!

A short book which presents evidence-backed theories of how the supposed nonchalant and egoistic Easter islanders of the past have brought down their own civilization. Years of overconsumption have left them destitute, so much so that they had to resort to cannibalism. What was once home to subtropical forests filled with an abundance of flora and fauna, is now left barren with not a single tree left standing!
