Join Citizens & Sovereigns for a discussion of Unfamiliar Fishes by Sarah Vowell, an incisive look at the Americanization of Hawaii. Vowell traces the story from the arrival of New England missionaries in 1820 to the overthrow of Queen Liliuokalani and U.S. annexation, introducing whalers, sugar barons, political schemers, and Hawaiian royalty caught in sweeping cultural and political change. Blending history with dark humor, the book explores how Hawaii was transformed.
