I should add that the village Coan refers to used to be at Nanawale. The lava flow created the sand hills near Hawaiian Beaches.
Another historical account of Hawaii I enjoyed reading immensely was Isabella Bird's "The Hawaiin Archipelago". The link I have furnished is to an online un-illustrated version of her book. I have seen a version which included her sketches but I forgot the URL.
