Kamehameha was a man of tremendous physical and intellectualstrength. In any land and in any age he would have been a leader. Theimpress of his mind remains with his crude and vigorous laws, andwherever he stepped is seen an imperishable track. He was so strong oflimb that ordinary men were but [385]children in his grasp, and incouncil the wisest yielded to his judgment. He seems to have been borna man and to have had no boyhood. He was always sedate and thoughtful,and from his earliest years cared for no sport or pastime that was notmanly. He had a harsh and rugged face, less given to smiles thanfrowns, but strongly marked with lines indicative of self-reliance andchangeless purpose. He was barbarous, unforgiving and merciless to hisenemies, but just, sagacious and considerate in dealing with hissubjects. He was more feared and admired than loved and respected; buthis strength of arm and force of character well fitted him for thesupreme chieftaincy of the group, and he accomplished what no one elsecould have done in his day.

"Wow. Just Wow! I know we live in a world where sex is about sex and not about love but to find out that your family has increased by 2 half sisters would blow your world apart but that is what has happened to Malcolm. There is so much to this book. Romance, of course, because it is Susan Mallery but also family dynamics, love and understanding as well as misunderstanding. This is so real."
5 Stars "What a heartwarming story about what we do for those we love. Glen, Heidi, and May are such great people inside and out... I hope the rest of the Stryker family is next in the Fool's Gold series. I am definitely wanting to know what happens with Clay, Evie, and Shane!" 2ff7e9595c
