I read “Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii” and “The People of old Hawaii” in the early 90s. Difficult reading, dense in material and writing in old English style. Last year my Daughter (who is part Hawaiian) game me Ke Kumu Aupuni which combines the previous 2 books in Hawaiian and English. Re translated. Excellent read. I’m not Hawaiian, but it’s important to know the history of where I grew up.
