The Mo?olelo Hawai?i of Davida Malo Volume 1 - Ka ‘Olelo Kumu

Davida Malo's Moolelo Hawaii is the single most important description of pre-Christian Hawaiian culture. The heart of this two-volume work is a new, critically edited text of Malo's original Hawaiian, including the manuscript known as the ""Carter copy"", handwritten by him and two helpers in the decade before his death in 1853.
