a handy tool
I've used this guide since 1990, when I came across a copy in a Honolulu bookstore. How nice to see it's available through Amazon. I recommend it highly to other professional writers. Students will find it useful, too.

Diamond Valley Company, 2007

Fifteen day vacation
We decided to visit two islands because we had heard how different they were: Maui and the Big Island. We chose the trailblazer books to guide us since they were both crammed with incredibly helpful information. For hikers and snorkelers and sightseers they are a gold mine. They are written in clear language and the outings are well arranged with accompanying maps. The tips for getting ...

Sometimes Art Can't Save You

Worth more than I paid
I loved every second of reading Sometime Art Can't Save You. It is thrilling, authentic, and captures teenage years by the neck. Abuse is more relevant for high schoolers than I thought and this book made me feel like I wasn't alone in the situation with my mom. The ending left me wanting more. I am already recommending this novel to friends and family and would happily purchase any other Jill ...

Maui on My Mind
This book is the perfect example of the beautiful natural scenery and vacationing actvities that Maui has to offer, without getting commercial or advertising. The pictures are a beautiful descriptions themselves and each page provides a brief explanation of it. I also like the way the book is divided up into the main geographical areas of Maui and how it provides a bit of history of these ...

When I read my book.......
When I read my book I am transported to the Island of Maui, I hear the sounds, I feel the air, I smell the scents and I just know that I have truly experienced Maui. This book is just unbelievable. The story has a recurring theme that goes through to the end. The pictures are beautiful. I love the way the sounds that you "hear" are seen in the picture. I read this to a group of children at a Luau ...

Jaws > Mother Nature's Wave Pool
If anyone out there either surfs or enjoy's Surfing as a way of life, this book is for you! Go out there and purchase this book! Jaws is more than a book, the colourful pages come alive in front of you, looking at Laird Hamilton coming down the faces of massive 50+foot surf, it's like your right there below him (holding the camera) Blue Max did an amazing job of illustrating these ...

Hawaii Calls!
I truely was surprised how much information was available and delighted by the travel possibilities to corners of Hawaii that I never thought of visiting. I found the itinerary planning part of the book most useful and interesting. The photos blew me away and tempted me to call United for a flight to the Big Island.

Born in paradise

Armine Von Tempski

Far Eastern Book Co, 1946

An excellent book
This is the author's own story of growing up on a cattle ranch on the island of Maui, Hawaii about 1900. Her descriptions of the exotic landscape and culture and her obvious joy in living this type of free outdoor life made me feel that I had lived there with her. I didn't want the book to end, so I read several of the author's other books. They are also very enjoyable, but I like this one the ...

Lee A Jacobus

HAMMONASSET HOUSE BOOKS, 2008

Not Your Usual Hawaii
I am a lover of short stories, of the world that can be created in a spare space, and of the characters who inhabit that world, make it come alive in my mind. Short stories are almost impossible to write, but they're easy to digest in a single sitting. And so it goes that Lee Jacobus tells tales of Hawaii, not a Hawaii I'm familiar with, but a place with strangely familiar people who have the ...

Maui Tacos Cookbook

Maui Tacos Rules!
This cookbook brings back memories of days at the Kamaole Beach park on Maui. We would run across South Kihei Road and grab a huge Maui Tacos burrito. I may not be able to sit under a lauhala tree and watch a dazzling Maui sunset to the sound of crashing waves while enjoying the Maui-Mex food, but the book helps me recreate the great burritos and salsas with Hawaiian names that I remember so ...

Jill Engledow

Maui Island Press, 2005

A must read for those visting or moving to Maui
Of the various books I have read about Maui, Jill Engledow's is by far the most informative.She paints an excellent picture of the culture and history of Maui. You gain so much insight and understanding of the Island and it's people, she actually puts you there and provides such great insights that I have not found in the texts. Alas. don't leave home with out FIRST reading Maui 101.

Indian Chief Pub, 1994

"Great Value!"
My family and I just took a vacation to Maui, and of all the things we bought, this was by far our best investment. Not only was this guidebook packed with good, useful information on everything on the island, but its layout and organization and all the interconnected icons made it extremely user-friendly. We didn't have to spend our vacation time trying to find the information in ...

Summer No Ka Oi
An intriguing look at the beauty that was Hawaii's first capitol, Lahaina. Personally, this book evoked memories buried deep in my heart. The collection of photos and the author's eloquent writing combine to create a book of high caliber. It is evident that Ms. Kupau is quite knowledgeable of Lahaina's history. This volume of the "small town series" allowed me to relive the vivid images of ...

Explore Kaua'i is also great....
My apologies -- I haven't read "Explore Maui," I read Mr. Pruitt's other book, "Explore Kaua'i," but I didn't see that one for sale on Amazon. But I just wanted to tell those folks looking for Maui books that if "Expore Maui" is anything like "Explore Kaua'i," then it's GREAT! Mr. Pruitt does a wonderfully detailed job and the book is beautifully produced with lots of great color photos and ...

50th Anniversary Maui Cookbook
If you are really serious about the Local cuisine that has developed over the last 100 years in Hawaii by the interaction of japanese, chinese, korean, filipino, portuguese, and puerto rican immigrant laborers living in "the camps" with native Hawaiians and haole managers, this is the book. Or on the other hand, if you had a great "plate lunch" in Hawaii and want to know how to make chicken long ...
