Linda Ballou skillfully weaves legends and myths, fabled history, and an evocative love story into a poetic rendering of the "People of Old." Lavish images of the Islands splash the page as you tread inside the mysterious Polynesian culture. Hawai'i's story is told through the eyes of Wai-nani, a fiercely passionate, free-spirited woman. She takes you on a seductive journey that spans the most dynamic period in Hawaiian history
