This book is a critical biography of the volcano goddess, as well as a history of her religion.

Book excerpt: This ancient saga begins with the goddess Pele's migration to Kīlauea and her spirit's search for a lover. The story then details the quest of Pele's younger sister, Hi'iakaikapoliopele, to find the handsome Lohi'auipo, and bring him back to their crater home. It is a very human account of love and lust, jealousy and justice, peopled with deities, demons, chiefs and commoners. This version by Ho'oulumāhie-hie ran from 1905 to 1906 as a daily series in the Hawaiian-language newspaper Ka Na'i Aupuni. It is the most extensive form of the story ever documented, offering a wealth of detail and insights about social and religious practices, poetry and hula, healing arts, and many other Hawaiian customs.

Book excerpt: The ancient legends of Hawaii tell how Pele came to the islands from far across the sea. After traveling from north to south, testing each of the islands for a home suitable for herself and her family she took up her abode inHalemaumau Crater at the summit of Kïlauea on the island of Hawaii. To the Hawaiians of old she was a livingdeity. Today Pele personifies the volcano to visitors and residents, showing her capriciousness and power while both destroying and creating new land. Perhaps it is she who weaves the spell that brings people back again and again to the island of Hawaii, sometimes to spend the rest of their days in this vibrant land. That can be said of both Likeke R. McBride, the author, and Dietrich Varez, the illustrator. Often crossing paths, they each found homes for themselves and their families, and lived for decades in Volcano, deep in the land of Pele. Join them in exploring stories of the fire goddess that clearly paint the history of this dynamic land as seen through the eyes of inhabitants over generations, passed down through the ages. Originally published over fifty years ago, Pele, Volcano Goddess of Hawaii will now, with new illustrations, give these tales renewed life.
