WRONG!  The high literacy achieved by Hawaiians in the 1800's was in the Hawaiian language, not English, French (a language I love.), Or Russian, or Japanese.  As I understand it, the treasures are to be found in newspapers, many of them.  Have you see the Hawaiian Hymnal!

As far as I know, Hawaii Aloha was written in Hawaiian by a haole missionary before being translated into English. "Ku'u home kulaiwi nei"
