For half a century, the United States has treated Cuba and Hawai'i as polar opposites: despised nation and beloved state. But for more than a century before the Cuban revolution and Hawaiian statehood of 1959, Cuba and Hawai'i figured as twin objects of U.S. imperial desire and as possessions whose tropical island locales might support all manner of fantasy fulfillment—cultural, financial, and geopolitical. Using travel and tourism as sites where the pleasures of imperialism met the politics of empire, Christine Skwiot untangles the histories of Cuba and Hawai'i as integral parts of the Union and keys to U.S. global power, as occupied territories with violent pasts, and as fantasy islands ripe with seduction and reward. Grounded in a wide array of primary materials that range from government sources and tourist industry records to promotional items and travel narratives, The Purposes of Paradise explores the ways travel and tourism shaped U.S. imperialism in Cuba and Hawai'i. More broadly, Skwiot's comparative approach underscores continuity, as well as change, in U.S. imperial thought and practice across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Comparing the relationships of Cuba and Hawai'i with the United States, Skwiot argues, offers a way to revisit assumptions about formal versus informal empire, territorial versus commercial imperialism, and direct versus indirect rule.

Excerpt from Some Purposes of Paradise: On the Life of the Soul Between Death and Resurrection This little book was written with the desire and hope of helping to dispel some of the obscurity which for many seems to hang so needlessly over the life of the soul between death and resurrection. To vast numbers of English-speaking Christians everything beyond the grave seems purposely hidden by a veil of mystery, which it would be almost impious to attempt to draw aside. Even tonnany devout souls the condition of their loved ones is in volved in such an obscure atmosphere that it seems hopeless to learn anything definite in regard to it. If the fact that Christ hath abolished death, and brought life and immor tality to light through the Gospel (2 Tim. I. 10) has not been altogether forgotten, the greatness of the light has at least been put in the background.

“It is the best treatment of the person and work of the enemy I have ever read.” — R.C. Sproul, from the foreword to God’s Devil Many Christians are oblivious to the Devil and his schemes, and this is precisely the problem. If you don’t know why you need to know about the Devil, then this book is especially for you. In God’s Devil, pastor and scholar Erwin W. Lutzer takes us to the corners of Scripture to which we seldom go. With surprising insights and potent quotes at every turn, God’s Devil will: Teach you how Satan fits into God’s great plans for the world Give you confidence in God’s everlasting victory over Satan Equip you to withstand Satan’s schemes against you Martin Luther once said, “Even the Devil is God’s devil.” So while this is a book about Satan, it is even more about God’s sovereign power over him. Read it for comfort, read it for peace, and read it for strength. Consider digging deeper with the God’s Devil DVD and study guide.
