註釋
"... The first comparative history of tourism development in the Pacific Islands. It deals with three countries which are near neighbours of Australia -- Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu -- and traces the growth of tourism from the pioneer cruises to the region offered by Burnes Philip & Co. to the latter-day development of the islands as part of the Pacific's "pleasure periphery". The images which helped define the area for travellers are examined, as are the contributions made by Melanesians to regional tourism. The title of the book pays homage to an early, influential work of Melanesian history, Dorothy Shineberg's "They came for sandalwood"." -- Back cover.
