From the launch in Hawai'i in May 2014, around the world 60,000 miles, to 23 different countries, this beautiful hardcover book chronicles Hokule'a's epic mission to raise awareness of and nurture worldwide sustainability. Interwoven with descriptions of Hokule'a's experiences in port are the voices of the master navigators and crew members, who guide the ship along the ocean's trackless path using only stars, birds, wind, and seas -- non-instrumental wayfinding techniques-- and the local pioneers -- scientists, teachers, and children touched by Hokule'a' -- who work tirelessly to weather the many environmental challenges in our modern lives. This is a story about our need to draw together into one global community. By respecting one another and nature's delicate and intricate systems, this book captures the many ways indigenous cultures are committed to living in ecological balance.

“To have, in one photo-rich volume, such thoughtful looks at stops on a voyage and the waters in between, plus a capsule history of the Hokule‘a, is deeply satisfying and moving. It’s a grand and crucial adventure, and we’re all on board.” —Honolulu Star-Advertiser

“A must-have book on the traditional Polynesian voyaging canoe.” —Surfer Today “Malama Honua: Hokule'a - A Voyage Of Hope is a luxurious and content-rich hardcover book that will inspire Hawaiians and non-Hawaiians to explore the enchantments of nature, through one of the ultimate symbols of Polynesian culture.” —Surfer Today “For those who still live thinking that climate change is nothing but fake news, [this] book encourages and invites them to open their eyes and minds to the facts that are in front of us.” —Surfer Today “[Malama Honua] is a gift to be tasted outdoor when the sun is shining, and the ocean's blue. And we can assure you that this book will restore your hope in humankind.” —Surfer Today
