Not much has been written or published about the island of Niihau. Mai Puaiki Kula Maniania a Puuwai Aloha o ka Ohana showcases authentic stories of the place, ones previously known only to that island's people. Niihau has a unique history and a self-sufficient community who speaks a distinct dialect of Hawaiian language. Annette Kuuipolani Wong, a former resident of Niihau who lived there for the first twenty-one years of her life, has recorded stories passed down orally by Niihau's people, who cherished their land and respected the owners. By writing these stories, Wong hopes to perpetuate the voices of her ancestors whose remarkable tales teach us and the following generations about life on the island.
