7. Stars Over Hawaii by E. H. Bryan, Jr., was first published in 1955 by a company called BOOKS ABOUT HAWAII, but is long since out of print. A somewhat revised version was reprinted by The Petroglyph Press of Hilo, Hawaii, in 1977. Recently (September 2002) The Petroglyph Press (160 Kamehameha Avenue, Hilo, Hawaii 96720) has published a new version of Stars Over Hawaii, updated by Dr. Richard Crowe, Professor of Astronomy at UH-Hilo, and with my contribution.
