Book Leaving Paradise

  • Author : Jean Barman
  • Publisher : University of Hawaii Press
  • Release : 2006-05-31
  • ISBN : 0824874536
  • Pages : 528 pages

Download or read book Leaving Paradise written by Jean Barman and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2006-05-31 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native Hawaiians arrived in the Pacific Northwest as early as 1787. Some went out of curiosity; many others were recruited as seamen or as workers in the fur trade. By the end of the nineteenth century more than a thousand men and women had journeyed across the Pacific, but the stories of these extraordinary individuals have gone largely unrecorded in Hawaiian or Western sources. Through painstaking archival work in British Columbia, Oregon, California, and Hawaii, Jean Barman and Bruce Watson pieced together what is known about these sailors, laborers, and settlers from 1787 to 1898, the year the Hawaiian Islands were annexed to the United States. In addition, the authors include descriptive biographical entries on some eight hundred Native Hawaiians, a remarkable and invaluable complement to their narrative history. "Kanakas" (as indigenous Hawaiians were called) formed the backbone of the fur trade along with French Canadians and Scots. As the trade waned and most of their countrymen returned home, several hundred men with indigenous wives raised families and formed settlements throughout the Pacific Northwest. Today their descendants remain proud of their distinctive heritage. The resourcefulness of these pioneers in the face of harsh physical conditions and racism challenges the early Western perception that Native Hawaiians were indolent and easily exploited. Scholars and others interested in a number of fields—Hawaiian history, Pacific Islander studies, Western U.S. and Western Canadian history, diaspora studies—will find Leaving Paradise an indispensable work.

Book Hawaiian  Annexation  Imperils Trade

Download or read book Hawaiian Annexation Imperils Trade written by Dorman Bridgman Eaton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawaiian "Annexation" Imperils Trade: Annexation Should Be Submitted to the People The magnificent business that has been built up with the Hawaiian Islands, that so afi'ects some of the emotional advocates of annexation, does not appear very attractive upon investigation. The Hawaiians have far more cause to become enthusiastic over the magnificent business that they have built up with the United States, and at our expense! The total amount of purchases by Hawaii from the United States is only annually, or the amount of business that is done in San Francisco in two days.' Chicago does as much, business on any working day before noon as the purchases of the Hawaiian Islands from the United States amount to in a whole year. New York does more business in an hour.

  • Author : Tom Coffman
  • Publisher : University of Hawaii Press
  • Release : 2003-02-28
  • ISBN : 9780824826628
  • Pages : 444 pages

Download or read book The Island Edge of America written by Tom Coffman and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his most challenging work to date, journalist and author Tom Coffman offers readers a new and much-needed political narrative of twentieth-century Hawaii. The Island Edge of America reinterprets the major events leading up to and following statehood in 1959: U.S. annexation of the Hawaiian kingdom, the wartime crisis of the Japanese-American community, postwar labor organization, the Cold War, the development of Hawaii's legendary Democratic Party, the rise of native Hawaiian nationalism. His account weaves together the threads of multicultural and transnational forces that have shaped the Islands for more than a century, looking beyond the Hawaii carefully packaged for the tourist to the Hawaii of complex and conflicting identities--independent kingdom, overseas colony, U.S. state, indigenous nation--a wonderfully rich, diverse, and at times troubled place. With a sure grasp of political history and culture based on decades of firsthand archival research, Tom Coffman takes Hawaii's story into the twentieth century and in the process sheds new light on America's island edge.
