Heath of J. Mo Humill and the Marquesan Cannibal King
Boston born Heath of J Mo Humill recalls a Marquesan king who ruled the Pacific islands. He died at seventy after a life linked to whaling and exotic ordeals. Aided by family memories and letters from Roxbury, the tale blends voyage lore with a long-hidden past of captives and a brutal ritual that once tested loyalty to a self styled monarch.
