Excerpt from America in Hawaii: A History of United States Influence in the Hawaiian Islands After the lapse of more than a century, during which the attention of the American people has been more and more closely drawn to the Hawaiian Islands, this archipelago has become American soil. It has been the aim of the author to trace, in as simple a manner as possible, the growth of American influence and sentiment in these Islands from their earliest beginnings to their culmination in annexation to the United States. While the author does not care to conceal from the reader in this brief introduction his thorough sympathy with the movement, in the Islands and in this country, which ended in annexation, he has endeavored, in the narration, to eliminate from it, as far as possible, any sentiment of partisanship, and to tell the story plainly, as the records have told it to him.

In 1893 a small group of white planters and missionary descendants backed by the United States overthrew the Kingdom of Hawai‘i and established a government modeled on the Jim Crow South. In Nation Within Tom Coffman tells the complex history of the unsuccessful efforts of deposed Hawaiian queen Lili‘uokalani and her subjects to resist annexation, which eventually came in 1898. Coffman describes native Hawaiian political activism, the queen's visits to Washington, D.C., to lobby for independence, and her imprisonment, along with hundreds of others, after their aborted armed insurrection. Exposing the myths that fueled the narrative that native Hawaiians willingly relinquished their nation, Coffman shows how Americans such as Theodore Roosevelt conspired to extinguish Hawai‘i's sovereignty in the service of expanding the United States' growing empire.

In his most challenging work to date, journalist and author Tom Coffman offers readers a new and much-needed political narrative of twentieth-century Hawaii. The Island Edge of America reinterprets the major events leading up to and following statehood in 1959: U.S. annexation of the Hawaiian kingdom, the wartime crisis of the Japanese-American community, postwar labor organization, the Cold War, the development of Hawaii's legendary Democratic Party, the rise of native Hawaiian nationalism. His account weaves together the threads of multicultural and transnational forces that have shaped the Islands for more than a century, looking beyond the Hawaii carefully packaged for the tourist to the Hawaii of complex and conflicting identities--independent kingdom, overseas colony, U.S. state, indigenous nation--a wonderfully rich, diverse, and at times troubled place. With a sure grasp of political history and culture based on decades of firsthand archival research, Tom Coffman takes Hawaii's story into the twentieth century and in the process sheds new light on America's island edge.

"What does Hawaii mean to you? Diamond Head and Waikiki, hula girls and palm trees, surfers and sunsets ... Here is a nostalgic album of the words and pictures that created the familiar fantasy-image and convinced millions of people that the Hawaiian Islands were the most romantic spot on Earth. Assembled in this book are hunmdreds of ... examples of the promotion of Hawaii from 1910 up through the 1950s: the richly illustrated travel brochures, the fanciful Hollywood films, and even the garishly-tinted postcards and colorful fabric designs that have all been unsseen for decades."--Back cover.

How did Hawaiian and Polynesian culture come to dramatically alter American music, fashion and decor, as well as ideas about race, in less than a century? It began with mainland hula and musical performances in the late 19th century, rose dramatically as millions shipped to Hawaii during the Pacific War, then made big leap with the advent of low-cost air travel. By the end of the 1950s, mainlanders were hosting tiki parties, listening to exotic music, lazing on rattan furniture in Hawaiian shirts and, of course, surfing. Increasingly, they were marrying people outside of their own racial groups as well. The author describes how this cultural conquest came about and the people and events that led to it.

"The story begins in Honolulu in late 1939 with a small but visionary group calling itself the Council for Interracial Unity. In the event of war with Japan, they seek to circumvent a mass incarceration of the populous Japanese community and to mobilize its participation in the U.S. war effort. Their interracial relationships--spanning the public school system, the university, the YMCA and, finally, the U.S. Army--are to be tested to the limit. Their conflicts with President Roosevelt and the U.S. Navy over issues of race and national origin become a chasm. How their advanced planning plays out against the forced evacuation from the West Coast states of 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry is at the heart of How Hawaiʻi Changed America"--Back cover.
