Synopsis "Island Kingdom: Tonga Ancient and Modern"

The book is a comprehensive, up-to-date, authoritative and readable account of Tongan society from its origins 3000 years ago to the present. It discusses its archaeology, the development of traditional society, and the transition of that society to modernity. Social change, economic development and political change are dominant themes. Modern Tonga was molded by dramatic changes in the nineteenth century during which the population converted to Christianity, and a formal state was established under a written constitution. Tonga is less isolated, more prosperous and yet seemingly more troubled now than at any time in its history.
