Description: "I carried out interviews with approximately fifty women in their eighties and upper seventies on Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island (a few respondents were in their sixties, a few in their nineties). Because the focus of my concern was sociocultural history, I did not not include groups that immigrated to Hawaii after World War II... The questions I asked... were based on providing information on immigration, childhood, education, food, clothing, language, religious, beliefs, work experience, courtship, marriage, children, and relations to other groups..."--Pref.
