They call it Upcountry — the open country stretching from the cane fields of central Maui to the high slopes of Haleakala. Here, in rare photographs and rich anecdotes, is Upcountry's story: a fascinating tale of sugar barons and shopkeepers, hard-working plantation families and hard-riding Hawaiian cowboys. The photos, many previously unpublished, trace the history of Upcountry's charming, tight-knit communities — Kula, Pa'ia, Makawao, Ulupalakua and many others — with each one keyed to a location on the book's gatefold map. Foreword by fourth-generation rancher Peter Baldwin.

Maui, 1971: A rural paradise soon to become world famous . . .Carrie Ann Emerson has never heard of Maui, until her lost four-year-old daughter turns up there, more than 2,000 miles away from home. The single mother’s journey to reclaim her child takes her from San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury to a quiet island community shocked by hippie newcomers with a lifestyle of sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll. Suspicious about the circumstances in which little Rorie was lost on the mainland, the Maui judge requires Carrie Ann to remain on the island until he’s convinced she’s a fit mother. At first she wants only to take Rorie home to San Francisco, but Maui has its charms. And then there’s Michael—handsome, sexy, charismatic. Certain that she needs a man to get by in the world, Carrie Ann sets her sights on Michael. But is there a line she should not cross to land the man of her dreams? And, with or without a man, can she be the kind of mother her little girl needs?

The Island Decides (The Maui Trilogy)

High on the slopes of Haleakala, lavender plants stretch across the hillside, a sea of purple, green and silver. This is the home of Alii Kula Lavender—a special farm with a unique crop. Kula, an arid region of Maui, makes for a perfect place to grow lavender—a drought-resistant plant that requires rich soil, full sun and well-drained southwest-facing slopes. Besides its obvious aromatic appeal, lavender also has valuable medicinal and culinary properties; its use has been documented as far back as 2,500 years. The Maui Book of Lavender traces the herb's historic uses in Hawaii and abroad, and shares the story of the Alii Kula Lavender enterprise. Stunning photography and useful information on lavender crafts and home uses, as well as 39 recipes incorporating lavender, make this book a treasure for gardeners, home crafters, cooks and anyone else who appreciates a little lavender in their life.
