The real first line of defense lies in the soul of a people, and is anchored deeply in the land. In times of stress men and women draw peace, understanding and strength from the hills, the forests, the waterways—places where quiet abounds. If there are any among us today, particularly among our young people, who have become so confused by tragic world events that they are beginning to doubt the demo- cratic way, let them go into our parks. There let them witness the wonders of nature at dawn, at high noon, at sunset, and in the twilight. Let them lose themselves awhile, and, forgetting man's inhumanity to man, slough off worries and cares. Let their carefree minds and open hearts learn to know, through contact with nature, their great country as it is portrayed in the parks—strong, beautiful and free. Surely then doubt, bewilderment and cynicism will give way to a deeper understanding and devotion to America and our democratic processes. The development of a strong national character is equally as important as is the building of ships, planes and guns. And the parks of our country are properly the training grounds for this phase of our national defense. Secretary of the Interior. Ill NTRODUCTION This fourth issue of the Yearbook is dedicated, like the others, to bringing together in one volume the current views of the leaders in the field of parks and recreation on whatever subjects they wish to present. If good knowledge is imparted and discussions grow out of what has been written, the book will have served its purpose well, and the people, through their Government, will have made another lasting contribution toward the protection and enjoyment of their country.

This course is designed to present Hawaii as a place where Hawaiian culture was a striving culture before the arrival of Captain James Cook at Waimea, Kauai on January 20, 1778 and the landing at Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii on January 17, 1779. After the first European contact, major changes occurred in the Hawaiian culture. When the Native Hawaiians came in physical contact with Cook’s men, the Hawaiians were introduced to human diseases which they had little or not immunity for and this started a drastic decline in the native Hawaiian population.

Historical Background: Before Hawai’i was proclaimed the fiftieth state of the United States in 1959, it was a monarchy (Lawrence, 1959). Kaua’i's first settlers are believed to be polynesians like the Marquesans, then Tahitians. Kaua’i is the only island King Kamehameha did not conquer in his quest to unite all of the Hawaiian islands, but in 1810, King Kaumualii, the King of Kaua’i, became the governor after making a peaceful resolution to unite all islands with Kamehameha. All monarchs before and after Kaumualii and Kamehameha ran their political and economic systems based on watersheds (EPAT, 1999). Each king named chiefs to rule these watershed- based political and economic districts; each chief was in charge of all of the flora, fauna, and people within that district. Districts of land, called ahupua’a, were delegated to chiefs and konohiki.

This prevalence of trade winds was due to anomalously strong high pressure systems far to the north of the state.
