Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the factors contributing to the decline of the Hawaiian people.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a memoir composed of the personal writings of Reverend Sereno Edwards Bishop, offers an unparalleled glimpse into the transformation of the Hawaiian Islands from an ancient feudal society to a constitutional monarchy. He chronicles the incredible changes he witnessed during his youth, from the arrival of Christian missionaries in 1820 to the era of enlightenment that began in 1839, a period of immense social and political change. Bishopâs narrative is both a historical document and an enthralling firsthand account of a society in transition, made all the more remarkable because of his unique perspective as the son of missionaries.
