Hans Jacobsen, my father, was born at the end of the 19th century in the Faroe Islands - eighteen small, rocky islands just below the Arctic Circle, north-west of the British Isles. He started sailing full time at age 14 or 15, travelling all around the world before finally settling in San Francisco fifteen years later. In 1916, at age 20, he made his last visit to his homeland. Some 80 years later I travelled alone to the Faroe Islands, longing to see these islands that I knew so little about, hoping to find out about my father's family, but not knowing at all what to expect. "The Missing Son" tells my story of finding my father's family and exploring his homeland, the remote, wild, and beautiful Faroe Islands. Letters to my father from his family from 1917-1924 have been translated from the original Danish, and they give a picture of life in these islands nearly 100 years ago. My father's sailing records and anecdotes from these same years tell of his travels around the world. The letters also revealed a surprising story - my father's fiancée wrote to him for seven years, always hoping he would return to her. He never did. Photographs show the sharp contrasts found in the Faroe Islands - steep cliffs, secluded fjords, lush green hills, quaint villages, and modern homes standing next to stone houses with sod roofs. In its 2007 survey of islands around the world, National Geographic travel experts ranked the Faroe Islands as the number one island travel destination, describing them as "lovely, unspoiled islands - a delight to the traveler." These remote and wildly beautiful islands are beginning to pique the interest of the American public. The Missing Son gives a first-hand view of the islands, the Faroese people, their culture, and their history.

William (Billy) G. Budge was born in 1948 in the small fishing village of Neil's Harbour on the northern tip of Cape Breton. In 1955 his father accepted the position of lighthouse keeper on St. Paul Island, a rugged and forlorn mountain in the sea. This island is subject to violent gales and snowstorms and is often shrouded in fog. Early seafarers called it the "Graveyard of the Gulf" due to the vast numbers of ships and countless lives that were lost along its shores. Billy and his family lived in almost total isolation. They quickly learned to cope without neighbors, electricity, or schools, and they lived off the land -- hunting ducks along the coast, berry picking, and jigging cod on the sea. Practically every day brought new hardships and problems to be solved. Life on the island was one of both tragedy and triumph. In Memoirs of a Lightkeeper's Son, Billy tells his story of survival on that lonely rock.

A fresh look at Hawai'i politics, past and present, is the theme of Fred Rohlfing's autobiography, "Island Son: The Life and Times of Hawai'i's Republican Reformer." In his 280-page memoir, the former state senator and long-time public servant provides an alternative view of life in Hawai'i's traditionally Democratic-controlled political arena. In Island Son, Rohlfing recounts his eight legislative victories and two narrow Congressional campaign losses and shares inside details of leasehold reform, early mass transit efforts and other political issues of the 1970s still relevant today. He is blunt in describing his battles for a more diversified GOP during the early statehood years and offers equally candid opinions on current political issues such as the Superferry, the Akaka Bill and education decentralization.
