Illustrated Coated Boards. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. This is a pretty - and pretty shallow - book about Hawaii and Hawaiians, designed for the tourist, and on our shelves because we relaxed our guard. The photographs are self-indulgent and repetitious, mostly short focus shots of residents, tourists, plants, and geology; there are few stupendous vistas, and so little attention is paid to the distinctive architecture that one would guess Hawaiians live without roofs.

Covers are sound but discoloring slightly; inked dedication to prior owners on rfEP; text is clean and strong. Robert Goodman (illustratore). …
