Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen

Más información sobre el libro

Lili'uokalani's autobiography offers a poignant account of her efforts to restore Hawaiian sovereignty following the overthrow of her kingdom. Written after her appeal to President Cleveland, the narrative reflects her deep commitment to her people and the struggles they faced. Despite her advocacy, the publication arrives too late, coinciding with the U.S. annexation of Hawaii, as Congress dismissed claims of American involvement in the coup. The book serves as a crucial historical document highlighting the loss of Hawaiian independence and the queen's personal journey.
