Book excerpt: "Ni'ihau, long known as Hawaii's 'Mystery Island', or the 'Forbidden Isle', has a rich, fascinating history put down for the first time in Ruth Tabrah's Ni'ihau: The Last Hawaiian Island. In her compelling, fast-paced, very personal and vivid style, Ms. Tabrah gives us an intimate look at Hawaii's only privately owned island. From her story of Lord Vancouver's rescue of two 'shanghaied' Ni'ihau wahines who were the first Hawaiian women ever to see the American west coast to the unusual history of the Scotch family who bought Ni'ihau for $10,000 in 1864, readers will feel as if they too have visited this island where, until recently, so few outsiders have ever been able to go."--Back cover.
