SCHÜTZ, A.J., The Languages of Fiji. Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1972. XII,120p. Cloth. Small personal library mark on tail spine.'The Languages of Fiji' is a short history of Fijian linguistics, not a descriptive or comparative-historical analysis of the Fijian languages.

(ANDREW PAWLEY in American Anthropologist, 77, 1975, p.126). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 34.50 (Antiquarian)
