Unfamiliar Fishes
Author: Sarah Vowell
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101486457
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
From the author of Lafayette in the Somewhat United States, an examination of Hawaii, the place where Manifest Destiny got a sunburn. Many think of 1776 as the defining year of American history, when we became a nation devoted to the pursuit of happiness through self- government. In Unfamiliar Fishes, Sarah Vowell argues that 1898 might be a year just as defining, when, in an orgy of imperialism, the United States annexed Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam, and invaded first Cuba, then the Philippines, becoming an international superpower practically overnight. Among the developments in these outposts of 1898, Vowell considers the Americanization of Hawaii the most intriguing. From the arrival of New England missionaries in 1820, their goal to Christianize the local heathen, to the coup d'état of the missionaries' sons in 1893, which overthrew the Hawaiian queen, the events leading up to American annexation feature a cast of beguiling, and often appealing or tragic, characters: whalers who fired cannons at the Bible-thumpers denying them their God-given right to whores, an incestuous princess pulled between her new god and her brother-husband, sugar barons, lepers, con men, Theodore Roosevelt, and the last Hawaiian queen, a songwriter whose sentimental ode "Aloha 'Oe" serenaded the first Hawaiian president of the United States during his 2009 inaugural parade. With her trademark smart-alecky insights and reporting, Vowell lights out to discover the off, emblematic, and exceptional history of the fiftieth state, and in so doing finds America, warts and all.

Enchanting Alaska and Exotic Hawaiian Islands
Author: Monimala Ganguly
Publisher: Ukiyoto Publishing
ISBN: 936269963X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
Diary of a Fascinating Journey to Alaska and Hawaii... Let me share a few words about the book. America is a vast country filled with diverse natural beauty across various states. Among these, two exceptionally beautiful states or islands are Alaska and the Hawaiian archipelago. It was my privilege to visit these two places. My interest in Alaska began during my childhood through geography lessons. Hawaii, on the other hand, intrigued us endlessly. These two places are not just about natural beauty; they possess unique characteristics of their own. The inhabitants, their customs, attire, cuisine, religious practices, and language set them apart from many other places. I’ve spent nearly twelve days in Alaska, mesmerized by its natural beauty. From the vast mountain ranges to the tundra regions, Arctic areas, glacier landings, sea planes, cruises, and experiencing the ocean currents, I’ve tried to capture every experience in my book. I’ve endeavored to bring readers into that dream world. The extent of my success can only be judged by the readers. Including a few pictures will enhance the readers’ connection with the book. I’ve tried to provide information, but instead of burdening the book with facts, I’ve aimed to take readers on a journey with me. If through my writing, I can bring joy to a few travel enthusiasts, then my effort will be worthwhile. I’ve spent around 22 days touring the four main islands of Hawaii. The serene beauty of the Pacific Ocean, referred to as the queen or heaven of the tranquil ocean due to my son’s profound desire, urged me to take up the pen and sketch my experiences in diary form. I’ve attempted to convey the religious practices, deities, the spirit of aloha, language, and daily life of the Hawaiian islanders through words, trying to immerse readers in the essence of these islands. The abundant treasures of nature, the amalgamation of colors, scents, and flavors of these two places have been captured. I’ve wielded my pen as the only means to portray the unadulterated gift of nature. Perhaps it’s not an easy task, but I believe that with perseverance and sincerity, human endeavor, capable of winning the hearts of readers. I hope this composition, emanating from my heart, will resonate with the hearts of readers. I cherish the hope that I can do justice to the opportunity you’ve given me. I look forward to presenting more compositions to my readers. Countless thanks.
