My Amazon book is on the same shipment to Hawaii as yours, Kaiwaza. Bring yours to the next South Seas Cinema meeting so we can show it off. :) I felt guilty ordering mine from Amazon after reading this thread but then I realized that I don't know of any mom & pop new book retailers in Hawaii, only used books stores. The internet and the last Barnes & Noble is all we have nowadays. I can't wait to get my copy. The little excerpts I've read so far are spot on. Soon I will be able to read the rest.

I'm in the same boat, littlegiles, but for me I don't have TIKI MODERN, I was lucky to score a reasonably priced BOT online but I'm afraid those days are gone. Ah, the good and bad of being talented, correct and now popular Sven, but without you and other pioneers of tiki recognition in American a lot of us wouldn't have had clue about what was under our noses. Some of us had an idea but these books have energized and united us, at lest on the base understanding, of Tiki Style and man it's a great style to be a part of. Now if my wife could recognize it.
