Book Reviews of Exploring Lost Hawaii: Places of Power, History, Mystery and Magic
Book Review: Encounters With Beauty In Hawaii
Summary: 5 Stars
What I found particularly fascinating about this book was the way it linked specific places throughout the islands, which can be seen today, with historical lore and people from Hawaii's past. I also enjoyed the way the book brought to life a lot of the mystical, spiritual, side of the Hawaiian geography and tradition. Long ago, when I first visited the beautifully desolate northwest coast of the big island of Hawaii, I had this strange sense that I was not alone. After reading this book, I realize that I, indeed, was not. The spirits of Kamehameha the great, and other warriors of Hawaii's past, live on here.Book Review: This book made my vacation incredible!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book full of beautiful photos. Best of all it guides you to the really interesting places on all the different islands. There are maps, and directions, and under each site stories are told about the site's amazing past. There are interviews with the locals describing their spiritual beliefs regarding the site. You could enjoy this book just to read about Hawaiian history and all the fascinating things that have gone on in these spiritual places. I couldn't put it down.The book also led me to some really nice places like a blue freshwater pool right by the ocean.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
