maintain their investment, this book covers the nuts and bolts
of keeping a home in the Islands, from lighting to landscaping,
roofing to pest control. Here are time-proven solutions for
preventing and treating unique problems such as salt water
corrosion, mold growth, and tropical pests that Hawaii's
homeowners face. In addition, author Karen Anderson guides the
homeowner through the often overwhelming process of choosing
the flooring, roofing and cooling, among other home
improvements, that's right for his or her particular
residence.

So You Want to Live in Hawaii: The
Guide to Settling and Succeeding in the
Islands
Hawaii. Paradise.
Gentle breezes, sunshine, coconuts and bananas falling into
your lap, beautiful scenery, great recreational opportunities.
All true (well, almost all), and all there for the tourist. But
what about permanent residents? Polancy's guide is essential
for anyone seriously contemplating relocation. A Kauai
entrepreneur learned only after the fact that her home-operated
business would be severely hampered by the limit of only one
telephone line in her condo and the absence of home postal
delivery, with a year-long wait for a P.O. box. While a
military assignment can be considered a transfer to paradise,
the financial realities, including higher rent, insurance,
utilities, and food, may cause a plunge into personal
bankruptcy. Polancy provides useful information on the pluses
and minuses of each island, facilities for children, and such
delights as tsunamis and hurricanes, rats, head lice, roaches,
crime, and DUI penalties. Read this first if you're thinking of
moving to paradise.

intermarried into a beautiful race called Hawaiians. Here is

therapies, chiropractic manipulation, bone setting, and
hooponopono (counseling). It can cure the most common ailments,
or bring someone back from the brink of death. Essential for
lomilomi students and practitioners, Na Moolelo Lomilomi delves
into the historic roots, the cultural context, and the
diversity of the traditional healing art.
