Simati Faaniu (Author), Hugh Laracy (Editor), University of the South Pacific Institute of Pacific Studies (Publisher), University of the South Pacific Extension Services (Publisher), Tuvalu Ministry of Social Services (Publisher)
"This book is a history of Tuvalu written by Tuvaluans. It is intended both as a contribution to the knowledge of Pacific history and as an expression of Tuvalu's cultural identity, complementing the political identity officially born in 1978 when Tuvalu became an independent nation. It is fitting that people who rule their own country should produce a history of their own for they, more than any others, should know--and need to know--who they are"--Page 4 of cover
