Description: | Nuipani is situated on Lake Tenggano on the island of Rennell. Civilization has made little change to these Polynesians' way of life; they still make their taro gardens and fish as they did when the missionaries arrived sixty years ago. But now their beautiful lake is in danger from bauxite mining. (Available only as part of the 10-part series.) |
