"When a prophecy procalims that the unborn Kamehameha would grow to overshadow the ruling chiefs, his life from birth is in danger. Nae'ole races with the helpless infant across the Kohala district of Hawai`i Island to bring Kamehameha to safety. Three generations of the Kawa`iae`a family join together to give us this unique look at place names of the Kohala area and the important events that shaped history. The first printing of Kohala Kuamo'o: Nae'ole's Race to Save a King commemorates the 200-year anniversary of Kamehameha's unification of the Hawaiian Islands under one rule in 1810"--Publisher's web site.
