The Story of Laulii: A Daughter of Samoa

Paperback (Forgotten Books April 15, 2017)
Excerpt from The Story of Laulii: A Daughter of SamoaI have been requested to give to the world a sketch of my life, including a description of my tropical native land, together with the domestic customs, habits, amusements and legends of the far-away country of Samoa. In doing so I have a two-fold object: One is to make other lands bet ter acquainted with my people, and the other is, by means of the sale of this book (the profits of which are to be religiously devoted to said purpose), to practically aid in redeeming, as far as possible, the lands of which my people have been deprived, and, if possible, to restore to them the soil upon which they were born, and which, by hereditary descent and long occupancy, is theirs by right.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
