Download or read book Kauai written by Edward Joesting and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1988-02-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here finally is a readable, thoroughly researched, and generously illustrated history of the island of Kauai. Edward Joesting tells for the first time the story of one of the most intriguing and least known of the Hawaiian Islands. His account begins with the prehistoric origins of the island and concludes with the annexation of Hawaii in 1898. Kauai describes the early emergence of Kauai as an island separate and distinctive from the other islands of Hawaii. It recounts the coming of Western man, the failure of King Kamehameha to conquer the island, and the ultimate incorporation of the island into the Hawaiian kingdom. Joesting also includes in his story the destructive impact of the sandalwood and whaling trades, and the subsequent rise of an economy based on sugar cultivation. His story comes to an end with the demise of the Hawaiian monarchy and the quiet revolution that occurred when Hawaii became a territory of the United States. Historical documents not previously used bring new information and fresh perspectives to this book. The result is a level-headed, engaging look at Kauai. Kauai: The Separate Kingdom is certain to become the authoritative history of the island long regarded by many as the most beautiful in the Hawaiian archipelago.

Book excerpt: Capt. James Cook stood on his ship gazing at the coastline of Kauai and the Hawaiian village of Waimea in 1778. Kauai was its own kingdom then, and King Kaumualii--the king of Kauai who challenged Kamehameha and managed to keep Kauai from being conquered by him--would not be born for two more years. The oldest and northernmost of the main Hawaiian Islands, Kauai did not see well-meaning missionaries until 1820. From the moment Cook put Kauai on the map, it has gathered admirers from all over the world who come to experience its exquisite beauty and wonder. Fortunately, many photographers have had their own love affairs with Kauai, leaving a vast amount of documentation.

Download or read book Kauai Travel Guide written by Kenneth McAllister and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-09 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're heading to Kauai and want a comprehensive list of all the best places to eat, drink, stay, explore, and discover... then this book is for you!From a geological standpoint, Kawai is the oldest of Hawaii's main islands, which probably explains why they had a head start in making it right. There's a reason they call this the "Garden Isle" and the "Island of Discovery." It's just that beautiful! Despite its spectacular scenery, Kauai is not the most populated of Hawaii's islands, with only about 69,512 people as of 2013's census figures. Some suggest that there are actually more wild chickens than people, a breed brought over by the earliest Polynesian settlers which have thrived because they have few natural predators. This does not mean that there's nothing to do on the island besides eating chicken, though. Far from it. This travel guide book will fill you in on the best places to stay, eat, drink, explore, and discover.
