An excellent book. I did not know the history of Hawaii. It covers the time period of U.S. involvement in Hawaii and the sad events that occurred. The photos are wonderful and Robert Louis Stevenson lived in Hawaii during the time period covered. I recommend this book.

Yet another wonderful addition to this series of books. Great for the young teenage or pre-teen girl.
