In the 1970s, a decade before bumper stickers and T-shirts bearing the phrase Eddie Would Go began popping up all over the Hawaiian islands and throughout the surfing world, Eddie Aikau was proving what it meant to be a "waterman." As a fearless and gifted surfer, he rode the biggest waves in the world; as the first and most famous Waimea Bay lifeguard on the North Shore, he saved hundreds of lives from its treacherous waters; and as a proud Hawaiian, he sacrificed his life to save the crew aboard the voyaging canoe Hokule'a. Review: Amazing and inspiring story compellingly told - The story of Eddie Aikau, the Hawaiian surfing hero is a legend that must be told. And nobody could research and bring Eddie back to life better than Stuart Coleman. For anyone who loves Hawaiian history, surfing, sailing, the sea or just a good story about heroism, Eddie Would Go is a real page turner. As I was reading the book, I really felt like I got to know Eddie and his family and it brought me back to the time when surfing was just becoming known as a sport and the vision of voyaging on the Polynesian voyaging canoe Hokule'a was just born. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to read this book on a recent sailing trip and read a chapter in the exact spot in the ocean near Molokai where Eddie gave his life to save his crewmates. I highly recommend Stuart Coleman's telling of the story of Eddie Would Go. Review: This is a great book! - Excellent! Extremely well written and not just about Eddie and the rest of the Aikau family. Great history of Hawaiian culture and Ohana (family) & early big wave surfing pioneers. Highly recommended and I'm giving this book to my surfing pals as birthday presents. When you are reading this book, it feels like you are watching a video. Most of all, the book makes you feel like you know and have the utmost respect for Eddie. I went out and bought "Eddie Would Go" and especially "Eddie Went" decals for my truck. Says it all! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #195,157 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #13 in Pacific Islanders Biographies #17 in Surfing #57 in Sports Journalism | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 410 Reviews | ## Images ![Eddie Would Go - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81sAMKzaN2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing and inspiring story compellingly told *by G***N on May 17, 2019* The story of Eddie Aikau, the Hawaiian surfing hero is a legend that must be told.

Says it all! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very complete bio! *by H***S on April 21, 2014* One idealised figur in the surfer universe is well described in this book. It's not an uncritical glorification, as it also shows the many ups and downs of the family, the main character and it's surroundings. What remains is an impressive insight into a very moving part of surfing history. No doubt, that Eddie would have reached comparable status when he wouldn't have gone so tragically!
