Negative Positive
Title: "Children" should be taught to respect others
Review: Saw book in condo. We are long time Maui visitors (1965). Would not buy this book and have heard nothing but negative things about it. The authors showed a complete lack of respect to Hawaiians by advising visitors of places only known to the local people. There are plenty of wonderful places to go in Maui without invading other people places, many of them private.Much of their land has been taken and they have been made to feel as if the island no longer belongs to them and then these authors expose places only known to them for all the world to find. Their attitude seems to be that everyone has a right to see all the places on the island. Well, we don't. We are guests on Maui and guests don't go through private things belonging to our hosts. The word I hear on Maui is shame on the author and don't buy this book... and we won't .... and we tell everyone we know not to buy it and why. There are plenty of other good, respectful guidebooks.
Is the review positive or negative?
