This year I started a new endeavor that, given progress to date, may take several years. Iam attempting to write the story of my wife's life. The idea for this undertakingoriginated with a fri~ an anthroJX>logist at U. H. Hilo, who said that ~ was almostnothing written about life in Palau during the period shortly after WWII. So, at themoment the prologue reads something like this: It has been said that the experiences ofchildhood shape one's personality for a lifetime. This child was raised on an island in themiddle of nowhere by an old lady w.IWJ ~ke no English and had few worldly possessionsother than t.IWJse gleaned from land and sea. Such rearing provides the foundation for atruly incredible lifetime joumey, docIImented here in the hope that others will be impiredto make the most of what God has given them. By way of story I hope to document thesubsistence lifestyle of southern Palau in the late 1940's and early 1950's, and at the sametime, provide insight as to how the lessens learned from a hunting and gatheringenvironment can result in the judgement, fortitude, willpower, and sheer tenacitynecessary to confront formidable challenges in an alien world
