"A richly entertaining series of Hawaiian tales with explanatory facts, which will delight and inform both the folklore fan and the general reader. Until now, long out of print."
--The Honolulu Advertiser
In bringing together this collection of Hawaiian legends, the author of this little book has conferred a great favor upon all those residents of Hawaii and of those visitors to its shores who pay take an interest in its original inhabitants, once an exceedingly numerous people, but now a scattering remnant only.
To native Hawaiians this little book will be at once a joy and a sorrow; to the heart of the Haole, who has lived among them, known them intimately for thirty years or more and learned to love them, this collection of the legends of old Honolulu brings a warm "Aloha!"
