Now sixty years on, here is a glimpse of the South Sea Island as they were. This not a history book but, rather, a word-picture of the islands and of the islanders' way of life. Luke was the Governor of Fiji for four years and travelled extensively throughout the vast expanse of the South Pacific.

Naturally, some history is included and it is as dramatic a story as told in every part of the globe.
