Tales and Traditions of the People of Old: Na Moolelo a ka Poe Kahiko
This book completes the trilogy based on a series of articles Kamakau wrote in Hawaiian language newspapers in the 1860s and 1870s. It takes the reader on a tour of the Hawaiian islands, stopping along the way to tell tales associated with each site. The stories, some full of mischief, bring to life the ancestral chiefs and gods of Hawaii. Kamakau describes the origins of Hawaii and its people, taking pains to trace the genealogies of the chiefs.
