Description

Scrounging the Islands with the Legendary Don the Beachcomber is the life story of the man who created the Mai Tai and more than ninety other original tropical rum drinks. He began the Tiki culture, and his fame as a restaurateur, entrepreneur and business man in the end grew to international proportions. Regularly regarded as not more than a fictional character by those who never met him, syndicated columnist Jim Bishop wrote: There was once and still is a drawing of Don the Beachcomber at the menu cover. A mustached man wearing a battered woven hat. Staring out at the farthest horizons. I never dreamed there was once a real Don the Beachcomber. Only a drawing I thought. Then at Suva, at the far side of Fiji, the drawing came to life. Don stepped off an old prop passenger plane. The hat was once the similar. So were the mustache and quick black eyes.
