Seller's Comments: Dust jacket has 1" and 1/8' surface scratches and a couple of rubs near the spine of the front cover. Bar code sticker blocks some of the writing on the back cover.
Full Description:
From the front jacket fold: "The absorbing true story of a remarkable woman, Anna Lindsey Perry-Fiske, and of the beautiful Big Island area of Waimea, South Kohala, where much of her exciting and unusual life has been spent. ...Some call her the 'grande dame' of Waimea. She is! But she is a great lady who is also a hard riding cowboy, ranch boss, daredevil racing jockey, horse trainer, and truck driver as well as a mother whose heart was once broken by her hanai son. ...Gutsy enough to mount a huge brahma bull bareback, Anna has met and mastered a full range of crises in a life that has never been easy. Those who meet her on her favorite cruise ship, where she sits at the captain's table dressed in gorgeous formal gowns, furs, and diamond tiara often mistake her for European royalty. No one would guess that by herself she pulled Anna Ranch from the verge of bankruptcy to become one of the most successful cattle ranches in Hawaii. ...Her sense of herself is totally expressed in her description of how she came to be what she is. "My mother made me the lady that I am. My father made me the man I am today!" ...HAWAII'S INCREDIBLE ANNA is exactly that. Hers is a story the reader won't want to put down, enhanced by 32 pages of photographs." |
