Davida Malo 's Moolelo Hawaii is the single most important description of pre-Christian Hawaiian culture.
The heart of this two-volume work is a new, critically edited text of Malo's original Hawaiian, including the manuscript known as the Carter copy, handwritten by him and two helpers in the decade before his death in 1853.
