Description

This collection contains digitized transcripts of more than 400 interviews conducted between 1971 and 2004 as part of the BYU-Hawaii Oral History program, under the direction of Kenneth Baldridge and then William Kauaiwiulaokalani Wallace III.

A majority of the interviews focus on the history of Laie and the surrounding Ko'olauloa region, but many include information on the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Oceania and the Pacific Islands region.
