Waterman – Duke: Ambassador of Aloha
A great story with archival video footage and photos. I loved the description of Hawaiians from all walks of life raising money, a dime here a quarter there, to send Duke to the mainland to prove his record time was accurate. Five months later he was in Stockholm representing the US in the Olympics.
