Max Freedom Long chronicled the spiritual powers of the shamans of Hawaii, the Kahuna. Although not an ethnographic account of Hawaiian healing, Long's book is enfused by anecdotes and personal experiences in the islands of Hawaii.

I made the leap into "entrepreneur" and luckily for me I met some very powerful business people who told me I needed mindset tools to help me grow into the new found wealth that would come my way. The first tool that was recommended to me was this book. It was a fascinating read but it wasn't until a few years later that I understood why a millionaire would recommend it to a fledgling entrepreneur. It created the foundation for every other book I read ..and I can tell you I read a LOT of them in my quest to be the best. Fast forward to 2012 and I now own my own direct selling company and all my entrepreneur dreams have come true in ways I never imagined that day in 1988 when I first heard about Mind set stuff! Order this book..read it several times....look for the message here.....this is a case study...not some pie in the sky self improvement "secret"...it is real stuff and it works....if you learn to harness it right! amazon.com book review, Oct. 16, 2012
Shortly after graduating from UCLA in 1917, Long moved to the island of Hawaii to teach in elementary schools. When he arrived, he claimed that some Native Hawaiians were practicing what he called magic. Long wrote that at first he was skeptical of this magic, but later became convinced that it worked. He devoted the rest of his life to combining theories about how the Native Hawaiians did what he claimed they did, and teaching those theories through the sale of books and lecture fees.Long decided to call his compilation of teachings Huna, a word he invented. Although Long researched and published articles on Fire-walking, he never firewalked himself. He founded an organization called the Huna Fellowship in 1945 and, starting in 1948, published a series of books on Huna that are still in print.
