A Year In Fiji

""A Year in Fiji"" is a book written by John Horne in 1881 that explores the botanical, agricultural, and economical resources of the Fiji Islands. Horne, a British agriculturalist, spent a year in Fiji studying the flora and fauna of the islands and assessing their potential for economic development. The book is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of Fiji's natural resources, including the climate, soil, vegetation, and wildlife.

He provides detailed descriptions of the various crops grown in Fiji, such as sugar cane, tobacco, and coffee, and assesses their economic viability. Additionally, Horne discusses the political and social conditions of Fiji at the time, including the impact of British colonization on the island's economy and culture. ""A Year in Fiji"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of the Fiji Islands, as well as for those interested in agriculture and economic development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
