Riassunto

An award-winning author presents the dramatic history of late-18th-century Hawaii—its kings and queens, gods and goddesses, missionaries, migrants and explores—as it, an isolated pagan world of human sacrifice and strict taboo, was confronted by a world of capitalism, Western education and Christian values. Glossary. Notes.
