Max is a "renaissance" man who survives the danger of whaling in the frigid North Pacific, works on various Hawaiian sugar plantations, captains sailing vessels, pioneers the guano business on Laysan Island, takes on the duties of mid-wife, is a Honolulu Police captain, and a motorman with Honolulu Rapid Transit Co., and always a man devoted to family and country. Max is also an entrepreneur. In his early years in Hawaii, he gained "squatter's rights" to Laysan Island. Later he established his home on this tiny, distant, and isolated island. Though many business ventures failed, he dreamed of a "kingdom" on Laysan Island. Perhaps he dreamed and schemed also about the vast riches to be gained in the bird plumage trade. Max Schlemmer, Hawaii's King of Laysan Island takes place during an interesting period of Hawaiian history. Max is involved in rioting which leads to the overthrow of the monarchy and to Hawaii becoming the Territory of Hawaii. Max is a constant gadfly to the local authorities; his actions often lead them into uncharted waters and reverberates finally in Washington D.C. Max Schlemmer, Hawaii's King of Laysan Island is also the story of the life and death of an island.

Book excerpt: Edgar Rice Burroughs created the wildly popular Tarzan of the Apes and John Carter of Mars, but the exploits of his heroes cannot rival the writer's own explosive adventure, sparked by the tragic murder of an exotic young beauty on a moon-swept Honolulu beach. The killing is written off as the tragic result of a lovers' quarrel, but Burroughs suspects that the alluring half-Japanese singer was executed by espionage agents. It's December 6, 1941. War with Japan is looming, and Burroughs has reason to suspect an attack on Oahu is imminent. Was the songstress silenced to prevent her from "singing" about certain sinister plans? As Burroughs and his son Hully search for clues and track down suspects, all signs point to the next day--Sunday--as the perfect time for a Japanese invasion. But the thought of such devastation raining down on paradise seems almost unbelievable.... Set against the catastrophic aerial strike that led the United States into another world war, The Pearl Harbor Murders effortlessly mixes hard- hitting action and exotic romance in this gripping untold chapter from our nation's most tragic day.

Download or read book Haoles in Hawaii written by Judy Rohrer and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2010-07-22 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haoles in Hawai‘i strives to make sense of haole (white person/whiteness in Hawai‘i) and "the politics of haole" in current debates about race in Hawai‘i. Recognizing it as a form of American whiteness specific to Hawai‘i, the author argues that haole was forged and reforged over two centuries of colonization and needs to be understood in that context. Haole reminds us that race is about more than skin color as it identifies a certain amalgamation of attitude and behavior that is at odds with Hawaiian and local values and social norms. By situating haole historically and politically, the author asks readers to think about ongoing processes of colonization and possibilities for reformulating the meaning of haole.
