Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O‘ahu has a varied, extensive, and distinctive network of mountain hiking trails. Stuart M. Ball, Jr., author of The Hikers Guide to O‘ahu, explores the history behind many of the island’s trails, beginning with early Hawaiians who blazed routes for traveling, plant and wood gathering, and bird catching. Sugar plantations constructed paths to access ditches that tapped stream water for thirsty cane. The U.S. Army built trails for training and island defense, while those developed by the Territorial Forestry Division and the Civilian Conservation Corps were mainly for reforestation and wild pig control. Most recently, volunteers and hiking clubs have created additional routes solely for recreation. The result of all this varied activity is a large network of just over a 100 mountain trails, a precious resource on a small, populous island. The book compiles the history of 50 of those trails. Most of them still exist, and many are open to the public. The trails are arranged by the group or organization that built them, moving from Hawaiian trails before 1800 to volunteer trails of the 1990s. Each chapter contains an overview that describes the background and purpose of the trail building during the period covered. The trail histories are self-contained, recording the major events from construction through 2010. Native Paths to Volunteer Trails will allow fans of O‘ahu’s hiking trails—and Hawai‘i history buffs—to trek into the past and learn about some of their favorite routes and research future ones.

Book excerpt: First-time visitors to Hawaii are often unsure of which island to visit and what to choose to do. No Worries Hawaii comes to the rescue with all the tips, advice, and practical information needed to plan the trip of a lifetime. Ready... Readers first take an "armchair voyage," in which they visualize the type of vacation they'd like to have. These likings are matched with what Hawaii has to offer. A clever but simple self-test allows readers to sort through Hawaii's many assets-beaches, nightlife, trails, gardens, attractions-to determine which are desired and which island is best. Set... In the second step, readers take their decisions from part one and receive all the practical and money-saving advice needed to book a vacation that makes the armchair voyage become a real one. Included is a complete list of what to pack. Go!... The third part of the guide contains tips on what to do-and what not to do-after arriving in the islands. Sections include how to plan days to maximize fun and avoid hassle, finding free entertainment and cutting down on restaurant expenses. Readers are advised on how to, and whether to, book tours (snorkeling, sailing, helicopter, horseback, etc.). The book's safety tips are a literal lifesaver, and the everyday advice on driving, hiking, and beach-going are essential for a sensational vacation. At the heart of No Worries Hawaii is its Best Of section, a listing of Hawaii's top things to see and do-museums, rainforests, snorkeling coves, walk-around beach towns, surfing spots, attractions, mountain bike and hiking trails, botanical gardens, ancient sites, luxury resorts, bird-watching forests, waterfalls, remote beaches, family beach parks, and more. Some 150 photographs and 5 maps complement the text. Book jacket.
