Summary: Great Book
Comment: Great Book that takes us through the times and life of Eddie Aikau. Living in Hawaii at the time, I was clueless about this man's contributions to surfing, and society. Eddie is truly one of the great Hawaiians of his time. The book explores his family life, challenges of being Hawaiian, and touches on nuances of the Hawaiian Culture. I enjoyed this book and learned a lot from it. I recommend this book to people that want to know about Hawaii and Eddie.

We need a book now on Rell Sunn.

Rating: 5
Summary: In a post 9/11 world-becoming-mongrel and more poly-centric
Comment: Eddie Aikau's transversal and self-abolishment into the vast
Pacific in the name of Native Hawaiian survival, remains one of those stories worth telling and retelling on local and global scales. Eddie Aikau's one specific lyric life like that of George Helm: an archive of much cultural beauty and pragmatic wisdom, difficulty of making poetry and soul moving out towards a trans-Pacific ecological vision much needed even more so now as the indigenous values, modes, and forms of culture would be abolished, mimed, or held in Hawaiian-statehood abeyance. Hawaiian culture, as in 51 First Dates, held in Disney-like mockery or some kind of wry New Age exploitation. You dear reader can draw your own lessions/lessons from this mode of work, but in the process here getting respectfully into EA's Hawaiian will-to-live and urge to go out beyond the Pacific island edge.
