Timeline Hawaii: An Illustrated Chronological History of the Islands
1 review
$25.95
Of all the states in the Union, Hawaii has undoubtedly the most interesting history. It is the only state that was once a kingdom ruled by kings and a queen, the only state attacked in a world war, the only state settled predominantly by non-Europeans and the only state that simultaneously had a saint, poet laureate, and president born or who had spent part of their lives living in the Islands. Not surprisingly Hawaii's history has an amazing and dramatic number of events and personages.
Hawaii's history records a bewildering number of social, cultural, and political upheavals. In less than two centuries, the Islands experienced: civil wars leading to a unified monarchy; the arrival of American missionaries; the erosion of its traditional culture; the rapid decline of the native population due to the influx of Western diseases for which they had no immunity; immigration of Asians to work in the rapidly developing sugar industry made possible by new land ownership laws; the overthrow of the monarchy; annexation by the United States; the 1941 Pearl Harbor surprise attack; statehood; and the Hawaiian renaissance and sovereignty movements.
Integrating a chronological text and vignettes with historic images of yesteryear, Timeline Hawaii: An Illustrated Chronological History of the Islands reviews the ebbs and flows of Hawaiian history covering the major players and events. Over 300 carefully selected photographs from public and private archives capture moments and people from Hawaii's rich history. Each image serves as a time portal through which yesteryear can be viewed.
The visual chronology begins with the ancient Polynesian explorers — Hawaii's first settlers — sailing across the ocean on their double-hulled canoes. Stunning portraits and compelling biographies provide a guide to the Hawaiian monarchy from Kamehameha the Great to the dignified Queen Liliuokalani, Hawaii's last monarch, as well as the beautiful and tragic Princess Kaiulani. Archival images portray Asian settlers and American missionaries, and capture Honolulu before steel and glass structures dominated the skyline, when much of the city's land was still lush and rural. National archival photos show World War II while photojournalism and news headlines illustrate the last thirty years' events awaiting analysis by historians.
For history buffs, Timeline Hawaii offers a quick synopsis; for students, a valuable reference; for those wanting to learn about Hawaii's history, the ideal place to start; and for locals living here and visitors to the Islands, a highly informative, readable portrait of the Islands. A six page index makes for easy findings of topics. Mini chronologies on important subjects provide detailed information. There is also a list of major battles in pre-contact Hawaii and descriptions of each monarch.
My best friend had a flag flown for my father when he passed, and I wanted to return the Hornor. Placed into a flag box along with the framed certificate is such a great way to remember a great friend that served our great country with commitment and grace. Our 3x5 flag and certificate arrived on time and exactly as expected. Bless you all that do this work for our loved ones.
I ordered the above referenced flag for my son-in-law. It was shipped directly to him. In past years I've purchased a few of the same flags (flags flown on earlier dates) for my wife and myself. Thanks for the wonderful service in shipping this flag to our son-in-law. And thank you very much for the work you folks do for Pacific Historic Parks and for keeping the collective memory of Pearl Harbor and U.S. entry into World War II in the Public's mind!

It is a beautiful design and message. The cotton is very lightweight. The neckline is very wide like a boatneck meets a deep scoop. It is not overly long or thin hitting me just at the hips so it looks dressier.
We needed a replacement for my dad's worn-out flag and after a wonderful trip to Hawaii I decided that the best way to commemorate it was to get this flag. My dad and my father in law both were in the service in WWII. We will be using it in our Northwoods home in Wisconsin.
Love the design of the graphics, but the womans shirts are not even close to size. While in Hawaii a couple of months we bought her a Womans Small at the park. Returned home and it was the size of a child's. I then ordered a Womans Large form this website and it is too small.
Just like the other pink shirt, it is a men’s or unisex cut shirt. I’ve ordered other women’s shirts and they are exactly as shown. Very disappointing!! No one from the shop responded to my email about the cut of this shirt.
