Abstract
Feathered craft is the most conspicuous item that characterizes Hawaiian society. Although feathers were often used for decoration throughout Polynesia, Hawaiian use of feathers for royal regalia is the most intensive. Among several books about Hawaiian featherwork (Holt, 1985; Kekuewa and Kahalepuaa, 2005), this book offers the most intensive and extensive information concerning this craft.
