520 |a "Germany's glorious but ill-fated involvement with Samoa, its "Pearl of the South Seas," came to an abrupt end in 1914 with the outbreak of the First World War. The "German time" - 'O le taimui o Siamani" - began in 1900 when the islands became an official German colony, but for 40 yeas before that the tireless industry of German planters and businessmen has revolutionised the Samoan economy. The German years have left a positive almost poetic legacy in Samoa. In "To walk under palm trees," writer Tony Brunt draws on previously unseen photographs in private albums to tell compelling stories from those almost forgotten days"--Page 4 of cover.
