Tahiti and French Polynesia by Tony Wheeler

Contains information on all the archipelagos; fully updated maps, showing 4WD tracks, walking routes and dive sites; historical background, from the Bounty muntineers to the controversial French nuclear-testing program; comprehensive coverage of the Polynesian, French and Asian cuisine; and a Tahitian and French language guide.
A trek along Asia's 'hippie trail' in 1972 led to Tony and Maureen Wheeler creating travel publisher Lonely Planet, and to the New York Times describing him as 'the trailblazing patron saint of the world's backpackers and adventure travelers'. Wheeler has been involved with the Planet Wheeler Foundation's work on more than fifty projects in the developing world and the establishment of Melbourne's Wheeler Centre for Books, Writing and Ideas.
