From the Author
This book will connect you to Fiji.
Fiji Handbook grew out of the South Pacific Handbook, which I've been revising since 1979. My books were the original travel guides to the Pacific islands, and this 5th edition again breaks ground. Assembled in directories and peppered through the text are literally hundreds of website and e-mail addresses, allowing you to make immediate contact with Fiji. So far, it's the only guide to Fiji to do so. The traditional reporting road tested by a generation of travellers continues. Features such as the straightforward restaurant and accommodation reviews, comprehensive bus, boat, air, and rent-a-car listings, frank historical, economic, and social analyses, and detailed coverage of sports and recreation have been updated and enhanced. Fiji Handbook furnishes facts the brochures don't mention and your travel agent doesn't know. The 42 maps have been redrawn on a computer. While on the road, I prefer to arrive unexpected and uninvited, enjoying the same hospitality the Fijians extend to all of their guests. No favours have been repaid at the reader's expense. I hope my book helps you find the Fiji of your dreams. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
