Welcome - From the Writer Who Lived in Hawaii and Now Resides in Gainesville, Florida
The Hawaiian islands are rich in history and culture. It was the island of Kauai and my interest in Hawaiian history that served as the inspiration for my novel, "Princess Ruth: Love and Tragedy in Hawaii." This is the story of Princess Ruth Keelikolani, the richest woman in Hawaii, and how an island newcomer settles into life and love on the island of Kauai—placid on the surface with underlying tragedy.
Major themes that are interwoven throughout this novel are women’s special stories, Hawaii’s fateful history, Kauai’s natural beauty, the forbidden island of Niihau, genetically modified organisms (GMO) and more.
The author is a friend of my mom's and she just gave me this book when we were in Kauai. I didn't particularly feel like I needed it, but now that I'm reading one passage a day, I find I'm getting something really useful out of it.
