Story of Hawaii

Rating:
Summary: Good Information
Review: I took off one star due to the fact that all the people in this book are drawn fat and not enough truth was relayed regarding the takeover of Hawaii by the American capitalists-yes Hawaii was stolen for profit. However, this little guide is excellent in every other way: lots of Hawaiian words, ancient & traditional crafts, great maps & drawings, good immigrant/ethnic coverage, important state facts, & plenty of flora & fauna. Great for Hawaiian vacations, state reports, learning the USA, and for parents/teachers wanting a quick overview. Great value.
