Born in Paradise

Resumen

One of the favorite books of old Hawaii, Born in Paradise is the first volume of the autobiography of Maui native Armine von Tempski. Throughout her youth, hers was a world of green pastures and roving herds, of hoofs and spurs and laughter. With great zest and charm, von Tempski vividly depicts the lavish and wild pattern of island life in the early years of the twentieth century. It is this breathtaking world which leaps into dazzling reality in the magic pages of her own life story.
