Edward Bailey of Maui
Teacher & Naturalist, Engineer & Artist

by Linda McCullough Decker

Edward Bailey’s significance for Maui can hardly be underestimated — but has been ignored. His detailed paintings of Maui in the 19th Century have charmed visitors to the Bailey House Museum, and Kaʻahumanu Church blesses Wailuku’s High Street; but his specimens of island plants at the Bishop Museum, the roads he laid out, and his role in the education of Hawaiian women are hardly known. 

Drawing heavily on letters and journals of the Baileys and their circle, Decker presents Edward and Caroline largely in their own words and those of their friends and neighbors. Detailed and vivid, Bailey’s words draw us into the world he helped shape, and share his hopes and his misgivings about those changes.

Other than his obituary, this biography is the first story to be written of the life of this humble, versatile, charming man.
