Tonga : A New Bibliography

Tonga is a fascinating and subtle combination of a traditional Polynesian kingdom - the only one to survive the impact of colonization in the nineteenth century and remain independent - and a thoroughly Christian country. This comprehensive bibliography is a selective guide to the most significant and accessible English-language books, papers, and articles on every aspect of the kingdom's history, culture, arts, politics, environment, and economy.
Tonga: A New Bibliography will be an invaluable resource for anyone with a serious interest in Tonga and an indispensable volume for academic libraries, reference collections, and policy makers focused on the Pacific islands.
