BOT, p28 "The fair climate (of the South Pacific), natural beauty, passionate natives, and abundant resources of exotic foods seemed to promise an existence free of the restraints and stresses created by the cultured communities of the Western world." BOT p34 "...the nude native girl, the wahine, (the) Eve in the Polynesian Garden of Eden. She became the first and foremost icon of Polynesian Pop, embodying the promise of unconditional love." BOT p37 And so on... Nope, nothing "hippie" sounding about any of that.
