"Whale Song, A Pictorial History of Whaling and Hawaii". This beautiful
coffee table book tells the story of the crucial years of Hawaii's
history...between 1820 and 1870. Through powerful prose, illustrations
and photographs it shows how whaling changed these islands,
forever...and how the Hawaiian society struggled to adapt. This book,
commissioned by The Lahaina Whaling Museum, brings together old
paintings and lithographs, letters and daguerro-types, documents and
stories, many never before
published. To these, the museum added its own fine collection, so that
the story of a major part of Hawaii 's history could finally be told.
