Samoa-Fahrten : Erlebnisse eines deutschen Pflanzers auf Samoa und andern Inseln der Südsee nebst Schilderungen von Land und Leuten ; für die Jugend erzählt ; mit Farbdruckbildern
A German youth adventure book from 1900, published by Enßlin & Laiblin, telling of a German planter's experiences on Samoa and other South Sea islands, written by Ernst Neumann for young readers. Its four colour plates are painted in a loose, rough-edged watercolour style, showing a steamship and a boat crew, a village gathering with colonial officers, a jungle climb among twisted roots, and a steamer breaking on rocks in heavy surf, a sequence a designer could draw on for adventure-romance tropical scenes.
