Kula Keiki Ali'i: A Novel Partially Based On The Effect of The Chief's Children's School on Hawaii's Monarchs. Second Edition.

From 1840 to 1848 American Calvinist missionaries sought to indoctrinate the children who would become monarchs of Hawaii by placing them into a residential school. A battle of epic proportions occurred between Moses, the oldest of the students and Amos Cooke the Calvinist missionary selected to run the school as Moses sought to to hang on to his Hawaiian heritage. Moses lost and the remaining pupils suffered cultural genocide, self-worth damage and identity confusion that affected their reigns.

2Rowena's review  May 15, 2000
By Rowena Tom
Author's interpretation of the possible outcome of the effects of the missionary teaching on young Hawaiian Ali'i is filled with Aloha for the people and history of Hawaii. Unfortunately, the the portrayal of thought patterns and situations are NOT within the Hawaiian way of life, beliefs or thinking patterns. Her end analysis is acceptable and probable, her description of means is not.

What impresses you about this book?

"I was impressed most by this author's encyclopedic knowledge of Hawaiian culture, customs and history. I also like the political conscience that guides the novel. This is a book written for a reason. Of the characters, I was most interested in Kapeka and the Voice she hears. And - it goes without saying - this novel has a very strong sense of place, communicated not only in visual detail, but in a well-crafted sense of mood and atmosphere.
