DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In 1893, the reigning Queen of Hawaii, Liliuokalani, was surreptitiously and unlawfully overthrown by a contingent of wealthy and ambitious Americans who had settled in the islands. Despite the efforts of many of her constituents and the support of President Cleveland, the native people of Hawaii, the Kanaka Maoli, had never regained any control over any of their lost lands until the present day. But, born out of the spirit of hope and what some would call the spiritual will of their ancestors, a great Hawaiian leader emerges from within that people. In the boldest of ways, he and his underground movement of revolutionaries regain control of the Hawaiian Islands and resurrect the Hawaiian nation. How is this done in one of the most heavily fortified military outposts of America away from the mainland USA? And is he and his band of rebels able to maintain this control and convince America and its leaders to acquiesce to the basic morality of his objectives? This novel is about the great, enduring love of one giant figure in a most alluring culture. His deep love of a woman is given up for the love of his people. It is a great sacrifice deemed necessary to achieve his most noble path in life. Will his people follow in his path and make the difficult commitments needed to maintain their unique culture and the precious lands, the aina, they now control in Hawaii?
