The Hawaiian kingdom existed for about a century, from the early 1790s to 1893, starting when King Kamehameha finally united the islands and lasting until American planters and businessmen staged a coup and forced Queen Lili’uokulani to abdicate. During the century of its existence, the kingdom offered its native peoples considerable protection. For example, in the later 1800s, several thousands of Pacific islanders were, in effect, kidnapped and forced to serve as indentured laborers in places like the Guano Islands in Peru and plantations in Queensland.

Good content, poor narration
Revisado: 02-18-25
While the content and timing of the book fits perfect in my timetables of listening, the narration lacks.
Credibility is lost when you pronounce a Hawaiian word like ahupua'a correctly the first time, and then get progressively worse each time after.
