Comments:
"Arts and Crafts of Hawaii" stands alone as the definitive resource on Hawaiian material culture. Meticulously detailed and well illustrated, former Bishop Museum director Te Rangi Hiroa ( Sir Peter H. Buck) guides the reader through every major element of Hawaiian life, providing detailed descriptions of traditional objects, methods of construction, and traditional use. As a testimony to Te Rangi Hiroa's scholarship and attention to detail, many descriptions are specific enough to allow modern artisans to recreate these works. Now, over forty-five years after the original release of this seminal work, "Arts and Crafts of Hawaii" can again be enjoyed as a singular masterpiece.
Also available in hardcover.
