Rainbows Over Kapa'a
A retired judge, Bill's memoir of his Kapa'a, Kaua'i, childhood starting in the 1930s is filled with old photographs, including his pure Hawaiian great grandparents in the late 1800s. This special town was settled by former sugar plantation workers who could buy small parcels of land, grow rice, and start mom-pop businesses. The mix of people from around the world created a unique place where everyone struggled and helped each other and influenced Bill's legal and judicial career. Laugh at his stories about tin canoes, ironing board surfing, and hukilau. Learn about Roxy Theater built by his parents, the largest movie theater in the islands in 1939. Read about the impact of the GIs after Pearl Harbor, movie making, and hurricane, and how land control shifted from Hawaiian monarchies to sugar plantations. The book is filled with aloha.
