But none are so entirely distinct and separate from the general body of mythology that most legends seem to stem than those of the Hawaiian island.

The chapters of this book include: The Ghost of Wahaula Temple; Maluae and the Under-World; A Giant's Rock-Throwing; Kalo-eke-eke, The Timid Taro; Legendary Canoe-Making; Lua-Ka-Ieie; Kauhuhu, The Shark-God of Molokai; The Shark-Man of Waipio Valley, etcetera. We are republish this vintage book now complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author. |
