In Search of Tusitala: Travels in the Pacific After Robert Louis Stevenson by Gavin Bell
Gavin Bell, for many years an admirer of Stevenson and his work, retraces Stevenson's passage through the more remote communities of French Polynesia, Hawaii, Kiribati and Samoa. On his tour through Polynesia and Micronesia he finds haunting echoes of a fading culture which enchanted Stevenson and in Hawaii finds a man who possesses one of the finest private Stevenson collections.
