Download or read book The Annexation of Texas written by Justin Smith and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of Texas (Spanish: Rep�blica de Tejas) was an independent sovereign country in North America that existed from March 2, 1836, to February 19, 1846. It was bordered by Mexico to the west and southwest, the Gulf of Mexico to the southeast, the two U.S. states of Louisiana and Arkansas to the east and northeast, and United States territories encompassing parts of the current U.S. states of Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming to the north. The citizens of the republic were known as Texians.The Mexican province of Tejas (in English history books usually referred to as Mexican Texas) declared its independence from Mexico during the Texas Revolution in 1836. The Texas war of independence ended on April 21, 1836, but Mexico refused to recognize the independence of the Republic of Texas, and intermittent conflicts between the two states continued into the 1840s. The United States recognized the Republic of Texas in March 1837 but declined to annex the territory.

Download or read book Place Names of Hawaii written by Mary Kawena Pukui and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1976-12-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many place names are there in the Hawaiian Islands? Even a rough estimate is impossible. Hawaiians named taro patches, rocks, trees, canoe landings, resting places in the forests, and the tiniest spots where miraculous events are believed to have taken place. And place names are far from static--names are constantly being given to new houses and buildings, streets and towns, and old names are replaced by new ones. It is essential, then, to record the names and the lore associated with them now, while Hawaiians are here to lend us their knowledge. And, whatever the fate of the Hawaiian language, the place names will endure. The first edition of Place Names of Hawaii contained only 1,125 entries. The coverage is expanded in the present edition to include about 4,000 entries, including names in English. Also, approximately 800 more names are included in this volume than appear in the second edition of the Atlas of Hawaii.

Download or read book Hawaiian Grammar written by Samuel H. Elbert and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without question, this is the definitive grammar of the Hawaiian language. Indeed it is the first attempt at a comprehensive treatment of the subject since W. D. Alexander published his concise Short Synopsis of the Most Essential Points in Hawaiian Grammar in 1864. This grammar is intended as a companion to the Hawaiian Dictionary, by the same authors. The grammar was written with every student of the Hawaiian language in mind—from the casual interested layperson to the professional linguist and grammarian. Although it was obviously impossible to avoid technical terms, their use was kept to a minimum, and a glossary is included for those who need its help. Each point of grammar is illustrated with examples, many from Hawaiian-language literature.
Download or read book The Hawaiian Republic 1894 98 written by William Adam Russ and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this second volume of his study, William Adam Russ, Jr. follows up on the story of the turn-of-the-century revolution that abrogated the monarchy and ended the sovereignty of the Kingdom of the Hawaiian Islands. The Hawaiian Republic (1894-98) chronicles how the Hawaiian government leaders had to establish and preserve a stable nation with themselves in power while representing only a small minority of the citizenry - and at the same time maintain a semblance of democratic principles to convince the United States Congress and the American people that Hawaii was worthy of joining the Union." "In January of 1893 a small group of businessmen primarily of American background launched a revolution in the Hawaiian Kingdom. Their objective was to abrogate monarchy, declare a provisional government, and seek annexation to the United States. They ultimately succeeded in the first two objectives but failed in the third." "In his earlier study, The Hawaiian Revolution (1893-94), Russ made it clear that annexation to the United States, rather than the establishment of an independent state, was the primary aim of the revolutionists. Their failure to achieve annexation from the Cleveland administration forced the leadership to form a permanent government until union could be reached." "In the present study, Russ discusses the problems faced by the revolutionary Hawaiian government leading up to annexation. While most of the native Hawaiians and others refused to support or cooperate with that government, the government had to appear to be a popular institution with the citizenry in order to appeal to the Americans. To make matters worse, the population included a large majority of immigrants who were not allowed to participate in civic affairs - and at the same time Japan was making demands on the government to give rights to Japanese immigrants equal to all other foreigners on the Islands." "This work on the Hawaiian Republic is unique as there are no comparable detailed accounts of the period in Hawaii's political history and in the history of the relations between the Islands and the United States. The author uses sources rich in detailed information on the period as it was viewed from the leading players in Honolulu and Washington and in newspapers in Honolulu, New York, and San Francisco. His use of government documents of the Republic and the United States covers the official approach to policies, giving readers the substance of the attitudes, beliefs, and ideas of the leaders so quoted. For this reason The Hawaiian Republic (1894-98) remains a valuable asset for those who study Hawaiian history."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Hawaiki Ancestral Polynesia written by Patrick Vinton Kirch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-15 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of an anthropological approach to long-term history lies in its unique ability to combine diverse evidence, from archaeological artifacts to ethnographic texts and comparative word lists. In this innovative book, Kirch and Green explicitly develop the theoretical underpinnings, as well as the particular methods, for such a historical anthropology. Drawing upon and integrating the approaches of archaeology, comparative ethnography, and historical linguistics, they advance a phylogenetic model for cultural diversification, and apply a triangulation method for historical reconstruction. They illustrate their approach through meticulous application to the history of the Polynesian cultures, and for the first time reconstruct in extensive detail the Ancestral Polynesian culture that flourished in the Polynesian homeland - Hawaiki - some 2,500 years ago. Of great significance for Oceanic studies, Kirch and Green's book will be essential reading for any anthropologist, prehistorian, linguist, or cultural historian concerned with the theory and method of long-term history.
