The love for Polynesia certainly started before the likes of Donn Beach. Mark Twain spent four years in Hawaii starting in 1866 and wrote a series of very popular articles for The Sacramento Union. It's now available in a couple of books. They're WAY better reading than Michener's tome on the subject. http://www.amazon.com/Mark-Twain-Hawaii-Roughing-Sandwich/dp/0935180931 http://www.amazon.com/Mark-Twains-Letters-Hawaii-Twain/dp/0824802888/ref=pd_sim_b_1 T-shirts based on vintage tiki matchbooks: TikiTees [ Edited by: TikiTacky 2014-01-14 17:49 ] |
