Aloha Spirit: Hawaiian Art and Popular Design [Hardcover]

Douglas Congdon-Martin (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 1998

The magic of the Hawaiian Islands has captivated the hearts and imaginations of visitors for over 200 years. The infectious Aloha Spirit is something they take home with them not only as memories, but in tangible reminders of their trips: a shirt, a carved perfume bottle, a figurine. At the least these mementos hold cherished spots in their homes, but for those who are truly smitten, they have become the centerpieces of a complete design motif based around the Hawaiian experience.
