This work traces the natural history of the Hawaiian Archipelago. Topics covered include: island formation by plate tectonics; plant and animal evolution; flightless birds and their fossil sites, Polynesian migrational history; and the effects of humans and exotic animals on the environment.

Alan C. Ziegler lived in Hawaii for more than three decades, spending the first half of this period as head of Bishop Museum's Vertebrate Zoology Division and the second as an independent zoological consultant. He taught in the anthropology, general science, and zoology departments of the University of Hawaii and at community colleges in the state.
