I Myself Have Seen It: The Myth of Hawai`i
by Susanna Moore
192 pages, 2003

Here you'll find books that provide a real insight to the history of life on the islands of Hawaii.  You'll notice the absence of books on Pearl Harbor.  We figured that it was more relevant to U.S. history than the formation of the island culture.  If you want to find books on Pearl Harbor, click here.  Otherwise, click on a title below for more information.  We offer 128-bit SSL encryption for secure on-line purchases through Amazon.com, the world's largest online book store.
