Book Reviews of Tiki Style (Icons)
Book Review: Small book packs a big punch
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is packed with photos of artifacts from the golden age of the Tiki subculture, a psuedo-South Seas phenomenon which reached its height in the late 1950s and 1960s. Like most Taschen books it is well-illustrated and discusses the subject matter in enough depth to give the reader a good feel. A good reference book for collectors or decorators!
Summary of Tiki Style (Icons)
This enlightening and hilarious guide casts the reader as an "urban archaeologist," exploring the lost remnants of the Tiki culture across the United States and discovering relics from this forgotten civilization in thrift stores, yard sales, and used book and record emporia. A combination of nostalgia and fascinating pop-cultural study, this book delves head first into the fabulously tacky yesteryear world of Tiki.
