Two that come to mind are a collection of stories and essays called Return to Paradise and his long novel Hawaii, both of which were filmed. Hawaii is most interesting (I think) because it is the story first of how the islands rose from the ocean, then how the Polynesians got there because of war in the Tahiti / Bora Bora area, then how the missionaries came behind the whalers (bringing New England puritanism and racism), then how the Chinese came because of famine in their country, then the Japanese (included is the story of the WWII Nesei and the prejudice they faced). Great writing and the films based on those books are worth checking out too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3257534902654534746.post-83526030278915917992015-04-24T00:42:11.303-04:002015-04-24T00:42:11.303-04:00Yay!

The older I got the more it bothered me and I always try to remember Judge not less u be judged. Jesus also told us to love one another as He loved us. We are all Gods children and I don't think He loves me a bit more because I am white and someone else is of a different race. I know I don't need to quote Bible to you of all people but that's just my thoughts. Besides if God wanted to rebuke u I think He would do so Himself . Does that sound right? I realize He can use people but at the same time I feel that as a minister He would take that on Himself!! Just saying. Luv youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
