Waikiki… An Illustrated Pocket History

Waikiki… An Illustrated Pocket History Product Description:

This landscape, postcard-size book gives readers a visual, colorful overview of Waikiki’s cultural and natural history.

Author Allan Seiden honors nature’s enduring role in creating Waikiki as a place of stunning beauty, and an iconic vision of all that makes Hawaii paradise. He also honors the Polynesians who first settled here centuries ago, making it their own, today sharing their aloha with people from around the world and providing a tangible link to Hawai‘i’s host culture.

This book follows the changes that passing centuries have brought, nostalgic reminders of simpler times that honor the hope that the on-going process of transformation does justice to what once was and is respectful of Waikiki’s unique history and sense of place.
