Frommer's Maui Day by Day (Frommer's Day by Day)

5 reviews
Jeanette Foster

Frommer's, 2007

Great Maui Reference
Having never been to Maui, I grabbed this book to gain some insight into the places I needed to see and things I needed to do while on vacation. The book is fantastic, notes the best "hole in the wall" cafes and restaurants, lists the GREAT farmers markets and fruit stands along your route, and even breaks down the things you can do/see if you're on the island for 3-days, 4-days, 5-days, etc. ...

Kauai Underground Guide: And Free Hawaiian Music CD

115 reviews
Lenore W. Horowitz, Mirah A. Horowitz

Papaloa Press, 2007

Can't wait to go!
As promised, this is an "insider's guide" to all things Kauai. While the Fodor's version is quite good (better than most Fodor's), this one gives you a real feel of what to expect and what to look for when traveling to the island. Can't beat the price, either.

University of Hawaii Press, 1986

This is a must have if you are interested in the Hawaiian language.
This is an excellent book to use as a tool for any level, from a beginner who is just started to learn to a native speaker as a quick reference guide. Since both languages are used to find words and definitions it is a very user friendly book and easily navigated. It is a must have!

Fierce Heart: The Story of Makaha and the Soul of Hawaiian Surfing

Stuart Holmes Coleman

St. Martin's Press, 2009

Just a rehash of previously published tripe..
Wow, another outsider shows up at Makaha and does the 'Dances With Boards' trip. Save your cash, folks, this book is nothing but a rehash of Coleman's previous articles. If you've read SURFERS' JOURNAL or SURFER magazine over the past decade you have probably already read most of this.

The ancient wisdom of Hawai'i has been guarded for centuries -- handed down through lines of kinship to form the tradition of Huna.

Blending ancient Hawaiian wisdom with modern practicality, Serge Kahili King imparts the ...

Wiley, 2008

I Love You, I'm Sorry, Forgive Me, Thank You
I have found great peace and understanding about life through reading this book. 'Zero Limits' explores obstacles of life and explains how we can cleanse ourselves and open ourselves up to creativity, love, and joy. The author made sure he directed the reader to all websites and resources, and I, for one, appreciate that courtesy. I give 'Zero Limits' the highest rating!

Hawaii: A Novel

James A. Michener

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2002

Hawaii
In the late sixties during the summer between 8th and 9th grades, I was gleaning through the relatively few paperback novels in my parent's library for anything interesting to read. It was my good fortune to stumble upon a copy of James Michener's "Hawaii" on an upper shelf. It looked formidable at more than an inch thick, but I fearlessly plunged in with all the confidence I had assumed from ...

Andrew Doughty

Wizard Publications Inc., 2005

A must!!!!!
I lived in Hawaii for 6 months back in '02. At that time I had the older version of the same book, and I am soo glad I did!! I was able to go to places, see things and experience true Maui. I have bought the newer version several times, mostly for honeymooners going to Hawaii. Buy this book, and forget about what the rest of the tourists are doing, because you will definitely have better ...

IM Publishing, 2007

A precious classic of Hawaiian traditions
This new edition of the classic book is simply wonderful. As the editor of the Bishop Museum book Na Mo'olelo Lomilomi: The Traditions of Hawaiian Massage and Healing, I look first to the lineage of information provided. This book is based on in-depth interviews with members of the Kame'ekua family of the island of Moloka'i. The author worked as a researcher for the Bishop Museum where she first ...

children's book
This is a cute version of the Gingerbread Man books, but in the Hawaii's stand point. IT's well written, and is a hardcover book. This book made me laugh, and made me remember my childhood growing up on Maui. The Hawaiian words are written on the back of the book for a reference in case you don't know what certain words mean, very good additon to the book. My children love this book and they are ...

A Concise History of the Hawaiian Islands

Dr. Phil Barnes

Petroglyph Press, Ltd., 1999

Amazing surprise... A great and compelling read...
In advance of my trip to Maui and Kauai, I felt like I needed a primer to help me understand the forces that shaped the islands' geography, biology, and culture. I had little expectation for this 88 pps book, but I bought it because it seemed the only reasonable choice available, and the title was exactly what I sought. When the book arrived I saw that it came from what appeared to be a cheesy ...

Three Little Hawaiian Pigs and the Magic Shark

Donivee Laird

Barnaby Books, 1990

The Three Little Hawaiian Pigs and the Magic Shark
What I liked about it is that it has a shark in it. Another thing I like about it is that the shark could walk on land. Well, I almost loved everything in the story! Everyone should read this book because the shark coudn't fool the pigs and at the end of the story they had a little party at the beach. This is a cool story!

Hawaiian Quilting: Instructions and Full Size Patterns for 20 Blocks
When I was a student at school, the most common behaviour statement I received in the whole 12 years of education was "Judith is easily distracted". I used to think that was a bad thing, but as I've aged I've come to appreciate that being distracted is a positive in my character. I believe the fact that I'm easily distracted is the reason I have such a vast love of so many of the genres of ...
