This highly illustrated timeline, with over 300 photographs, moves readers through the history of Hawaiian Islands, telling a story point by point until a fuller picture emerges. In this volume are collected the dates and names of the men and women who have affected these Islands, some for the better, some for worse. Here is Kamehameha I, unifier of the Islands, alongside Captain Cook, whose voyages to the Islands precipitated years of contact with the West and the near eradication of Hawaiian culture. Here are a multitude of people and events that have shaped and made these Islands into what they have become. This timeline is not a picture of Hawaiian history in its totality; that would require a work of numerous volumes. It does, however, provide the reader with a starting point for further investigation and he or she is encouraged to read the entries gathered in the succeeding pages and seek out further volumes of history to gain a fuller understanding of the events.

Timeline Hawaii An Illustrated Chronological History of the Islands Daniel Harrington Bennett Hymer Books Reviews
- Wonderful history of Hawaii - if you grew up in the islands and experienced it all first hand - military members who were stationed there during a particular period or event, or a visitor who "Left my heart in Hawaii" - this book is for you! Hope you enjoy it as I did. A real keepsake for all who "Live Aloha nui loa"
- Excellent and concise history of Hawaii. It's such a great book, that we've had to replace it several times in our reception area.
- This history is told very much from the world-view of colonizing Americans. As long as one bears that in mind, it provides a very interesting and easy to understand illustrated overview of the political story of the Hawaiian people.
- Wonderful book of Rememberances
- Great book. Nice photography and easy to read. Great as a coffee table book too.
- Great book...informative and interesting
