Saints of Molokai is the true story of brave men and women, victims
of Leprosy (now called Hansen's Disease) who managed to survive
isolation, being deprived of regular food, water, shelter and
medicine even though many were deathly ill. The book tells of the
tragic disease that attacked the beautiful Islands of Hawaii
tearing families apart and destroying lives. Of the courageous men
and women who sacrificed their lives going to care for their
beloved one suffering with the disease. The book describes Father
Damien who cared for the patients like his own children and died of
the disease, Mother Marianne and her Sisters who cared for them
until her own death in the settlement and it ends when the laws of
segregation are over and the exiles have to decide whether to stay
in Kalaupapa or return to the world from which they came.
