Discover Queen Liliuokalani, The Hawaiian Kingdom's Last Monarch...** Get this book by Author Kale Makana **The 1800’s, particularly the latter half of that century, was a time full of change, orchestrated chaos, and new beginnings. England was in the throes of the Industrial Revolution. The United States of America was blazing a trail for the western half of the country. In addition to the exploration of the continent, the country broke out in a civil war over the matter of states’ rights. South America was in a sort of Cultural Revolution as they drifted away from the control of Spain and their governments were ruled by military dictators. Yet, located in the center of Pacific Ocean, a string of islands existed making waves in World History comparable to any other much larger country or nation. This string of islands is referred to today as Hawaii.From how the archipelago measuring over three thousand kilometers long formed the first settlement to the unification of the islands by King Kamehameha the Great, Hawaii’s rich culture, and history takes a hold of you and takes you on a ride of the highs and lows of the monarchy—that is, until subterfuge, trickery, and greed snatch the islands from the hands of the last monarch—Queen Lili’uokalanai.Watch as in a matter of forty eight years, the population of native Hawaiians drops from ninety five percent to a tiny fifteen percent. The young princess must make a decision that could cost many of those under her control the loss of financial prosperity and choose between the lives of her people or their livelihood. Follow along as William McKinley deals a final blow to the Hawaiian Kingdom with his McKinley Tariff Act of 1890.Then came the day that the tiny kingdom would find itself absorbed into another—the day that Hawaii became a territory of the United States of America in 1898 after the overthrow & imprisonment of the Queen sliced through the heart of a kingdom forever changing its history.>>Purchase or Download This Book Today, Available on Kindle & in Print.

If there is the people's pope, president champ. etc there is Queen Liliokalani. She is one of the brave women that shaped history especially for Hawaii's history. Some hearts are not easily corrupted and lives for the betterment of his/her people. I really enjoyed reading this book. This is one of those books that has added to my historical knowledge. Thumbs up for Kale Makana for writing this book well :)

This book provides a fascinating insight to the last days of the monarchy of Hawaii as seen through the eyes of its last queen and her daughter. The book is well-documented and a must-read for anyone interested in Hawaian history.The writer takes you back to a time of elegance and royalty in the kingdom, and ends with the destruction of the Hawaiian way of life.

Great story of the last queen of Hawaii. I loved this book! I knew a little bit about her but this really delved into her story and made me want to read her writings. It's an easy read and a worthwhile one! Pick it up today!!

Lots of good, interesting information for someone who knows nothing of Hawaiian history, but it reads like a high school essay. It was at times disjointed in presentation, and the author interjected several exclamatory remarks which had no place in a supposedly serious historical work. Several characters were poorly outlined or not even identified beyond name, and their relationship to the major characters was described sketchily, if at all.The author is obviously excited about his subject, and has done some research. I would like to see him expand on this work and fill in the missing pieces. It could also use review by a serious editor before publication.

A history book about Queen Liliuokalani. She is one of the brave women that shaped history mostly in Hawaii history. Some hearts are not easily corrupted and lives for the betterment of his people.What i like in this book is that not only related to Hawaii but also have an interesting history about Queen Liliuokalani.

This is a history book about Queen Liliuokalani. I am curious about the history of Hawaii. In a sudden, I found this book not only related to Hawaii but also have an interesting history about Queen Liliuokalani. The story was keep me reading it and sounded like I was brought back that time. Having a wonderful adventure with Queen Liliuokalani was a good time

This is the type of biography that was described by Asimov in his Foundation stories. Disjointed, badly arraigned, without original sources and a waste of my time reading it. I can't imagine this work being given a better than “C" grade in ninth year (sophomore) English as a second language class.The author is welcome to contact me for further information as desired.

Great read about a little known piece of Hawaiian and US history and the elimination of a royal dynasty. Shameful.
