About
I was born in Minnesota, U.S.A. and raised on the west coast of Canada. There I fell in love with the oral traditions and art of the Haida people. I began carving at the age of 12, and became a professional sculptor at 25.
When I was 35 I moved to Hawaii, and assisted in the construction of the 62 foot long traditional double hull voyaging sailing canoe " Mo'okiha O Pi'ilani " Sacred Lizard That Pierces The Heavens on the island of Maui. At this time, I began making outrigger racing paddles, which are now used all over the world.
I am now a student of Inca culture; this is my first book.

Story Behind The Book
I wrote this book as well as my first book "A Brief History Of The Incas: From Rise Through Reign To Ruin" because I could never find a nice and concise book about the subject!
The history of Hawaii is much older and far more interesting than most people think. Did they originate in Tahiti 2,000 years ago, or is the story much more elaborate and intriguing than that?
Did this chain of islands and her people choose to become part of the United States, or were they forced? This book answers these questions and much more in plain and readable language.
