Of noble blood, but unluckily born in times of constant strife and change in the tiny island kingdom of Hawaii . . . Many times in her troubled life Liliuokalani had to hold her head high with queenly pride, as she watched the power of the throne being slowly and inexorably sapped by self-interested men. The proud and pathetic figure of Queen Liliuokalani is the focal point in this absorbing, authenticated story of the last years of the Kingdom of Hawaii and its transition into territorial status.
