The Love Remains by Katherine Kama'ema'e Smith
Edited by Robert Ball and Kyle Markham Hawaiian translation by Henrietta Mahuna
Cultural Review by Kumu Aloha Keko'olani
One Woman's Love For the Land
Torn between her Hawaiian and Caucasian roots, uncertain about her own abilities,
and unprepared for leadership, twenty-year-old Ali'i Kale Davis can offer only her keen
intelligence, a deep love for Honokahua, Maui, and her solemn oath to rule her people
righteously. With steadfast determination and help from her five husbands, Kale leads
her people through frenetic change that threaten to sweep away a millennia-old culture,
transforming Hawai‘i from Kamehameha's kingdom into the industrial age in just five
decades.
