A Note: In a letter to Wes Wood,
Tricia Allen, Polynesian Tattoo Authority, Author and Tattooist writes:
"It [Patterns That Connect] brings back memories of reading Schuster's
works 20 years ago... the illustration on pg 131 is not Marquesan, but
from Fais-- the same body suit that the guys in Hilo are reviving (see
attached)! And the chapter drawing on Ch. 4 is from Tikopia, a
Polynesian outlier, but I bet you spotted those right off. Regardless,
it's a great compilation of images!"
