Over dit product
Product Information
Although Makaha is a small, isolated town on the Western coast of O'ahu, it has produced some of the most intriguing Hawaiians of the twentieth century: world-class surfers Buffalo Keaulana and his sons Rusty and Brian; beautiful skin diver and surfing pro Rell Sunn; and larger-than-life singer and songwriter Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. What connects them is a love for their culture, their people, and water sports. Fierce Heart combines stories of exciting surfing competitions, dramatic water rescues, and deep friendships with a look at the history and origins of one of the world's most thrilling extreme sports.

Reviews
The author of Eddie Would Go has crafted another masterpiece of insight, detail and sensitivity to the Hawaiian culture. Having made dozens of surfing trips to Makaha over the years, I've experienced both the warmth and distrust of its proud residents, and I always felt they were gravely misunderstood. Coleman tells the exquisite truth with remarkable depth., If your favorite armchair travel fantasy is like mine -- turn off the main road, switch into four-wheel drive and suddenly there's the Great Good Place -- here's the Hawaiian trip of your dreams. Stuart Coleman's sincere interest in the rugged Westside of O'ahu got him into the inner circle of the Hawaii that most tourists never see, and he delivers astonishingly intimate portraits of surfers, singers and sea goddesses. There are no luxury hotels, Don Ho music or dancing girls in the pages of Fierce Heart , just raw life and native pride -- and local heroes who really are heroic., Fierce Heart is a memorable collection of stories about a unique place and a cast of characters that truly define modern Hawaiian culture and the spirit of aloha., "...during the swift reading of this book you will enjoy over 100 insider stories of the wild west side. It's as if you are sitting in the shade of Uncle Buff's lifeguard tower as the waves roll in and the bruddahs talk story. What Coleman did for Aikau, he has now done for the legends of the west side. He has bravely and honestly reported the stories of these people, who have likewise bravely and honestly offered the truth. The author's prose is clean, precise, and beautiful, like a single fin longboard smoothly slicing through waves of glass. The long wait for his second book is justified, and Coleman can now consider himself a mythmaker of sorts." -- Big Island Weekly "...an impressive effort, full of information and anecdotes...an enjoyable read, packed with tales about wild times and practical jokes." -- Maui Weekly " Fierce Heart is a memorable collection of stories about a unique place and a cast of characters that truly define modern Hawaiian culture and the spirit of aloha." -- Shaun Tomson, World Champion Surfer and author of Surfer's Code and Bustin' Down the Door "Be warned, this edgy, fast-paced book is like surfing a Makaha wave - once you take off, there's no turning back - once you start reading Fierce Heart , you will be unable to put it down. Fierce Heart 's wisdom will linger with you for a very long time, and you will never look at your own life the same way again." -- Sandra Kimberly Hall, author of Duke: A Great Hawaiian " Fierce Heart shines a light onto the world's best-known, least-understood surf break." -- Matt Warshaw, author of Maverick's and The Encyclopedia of Surfing "The spiritual home of the traditional, ocean-based culture of Oahu's West Side is at Makaha, where the bonds of community have been nurtured and tested by the surf. Stuart Coleman gracefully guides us into this world with respect and heart." --Drew Kampion, author of Stoked!, Lost Coast, and Greg Noll, The Art of the Surf Board "The author of Eddie Would Go has crafted another masterpiece of insight, detail and sensitivity to the Hawaiian culture.
