Hardcover with dustjacket. Zustand: Gut. VII, 112 p. Schutzumschlag leicht berieben, Bleistifteintrag auf Titelblatt, sonst sehr gut und sauber / dust jacket slightly rubbed, pencil entry on title page, otherwise very good and clean. - Duke Paoa Kahanamoku taught me to swim when I was five years old at my grandfathers house at Pu'uloa, the entrance to Pearl Harbor. I have had the privilege to know the Kahanamoku family all my life. This long acquaintance gave me a special entrée to Paoa, as he asked me to call him. Physically impressive, he was a magnificent Polynesianhandsome, magnetic, with an aura that drew all eyes when he entered a room. He was also a natural leader and the ultimate authority when conflicts arose on Waikiki Beach. His 20 years of Olympic competition did more to put Hawaii on the map" than anyone before or since. This world celebrity remained true to his old-fashioned upbringing and the values learned in his youth. He was always honest and humble, modestly aware of his impact on people. At his core he was Hawaiian. His most trusted friends were those he grew up with. He reflected a quiet dignity and was a good judge of character. He was patient with people who wanted to shake his hand, be in his presence. He was never maha'oiit was not Hawaiian to be inhospitable and discourteous. He had an inner strength that was warming and calming to those around him. He was comfortable with himself. Some of my most cherished memories are of leaning against a canoe, warmed by the afternoon sun, listening to Paoa reminisce about growing up in Kalia, simple stories told with great emotion. Visiting him at home at the end of his life, I'd sit next to him on the sofa, looking out at Maunalua Bay and Koko Head. Hed take my hand, recalling memories. Sometimes we just sat there, and no words were spoken. How fortunate I was to know him as I did! Aloha, Paoa (Foreword). ISBN 9781573062305 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 270.…
