A review by lmkunz
Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen by Lili'uokalani

emotional informative reflective sad

5.0

I was greatly interested in learning more about the history of Hawaii's annexation after I visited and learned a little bit about it on a bus tour, so was trilled when this popped up on Libby.

Lili'uokalani was very well spoken I'm this book. Her prose was beautiful and the reader, I listened to the audio book, did an amazing job with having the queens passion for Hawaii shine through the text. 

I wish this was something that could have been covered in school. We learned a lot about how badly the native Americans were treated during western expansion, but it is very eye opening to learn how badly the Hawaiian People were treated, and not have learned anything about it.
