About this listen

You hear its name all the time, but how much do you really know about the island nation of Hawai'i?

Just how did the ancient Hawaiians sail thousands of miles of open ocean without modern methods, without getting lost, and somehow finding new islands? How did such a rich culture even come to exist on perhaps the most isolated archipelago in the world? And is the nickname of a “beach island paradise” an accurate description of the various kinds of beautiful, intriguing, and sometimes even dangerous topographies and natural phenomena that make up Hawai'i?

Learn the true answers to all these questions and much more in this audiobook of the history of Hawai'i. Visualize your way through Hawai'i’s history with oral accounts, detailed descriptions, and various dates, facts, names, and events, all woven into this one audiobook!
