He Mo?Olelo No Kapa?Ahu: Story Of Kapa?Ahu (Hawaiian Edition)

In He Mo?olelo no Kapa?ahu/ Story of Kapa?ahu, Emma Kap?noho?ulaokalani Kauhi tells stories of her early life growing up in the Hawaiian village of Kapa?ahu in Puna, Island of Hawai?i, between 1916 and 1935. Kapa?ahu was an island of Hawaiian culture that had survived within the encroaching flow of Western culture and economic development.The stories are told in Hawaiian by Mrs. Kauhi in the first half of the book, then given in English translation by Charles Langlas in the second half. They create a picture of rural Hawaiian life in the early Twentieth Century in a place that remained Hawaiian, ranging from childhood games to fishing to Hawaiian medicine to caring for the goddess Pele.
