I'm only partway into the first chapter and I can already tell that this book will make me uncomfortable, and angry with the missionaries and Marines who overthrew Queen Lili'uokalani, and all those who set things up so that it could happen.

We're on the downhill slope (ha, heading down Volcano!) and I'm very glad that I went back and started over so I could read thoughtfully. Just a bit more to go and I'll finally be done, however I'm sure I will keep reading about Hawaii. In fact, James Michener's "Hawaii" in on my TBR shelf.

I'm reading it again, actually as I decided not to finish previously, saving it for my trip to Kona HI. I'm still uncomfortable with the book, but being here in Kona makes it much more evocative. Tomorrow I go visit the palace in downtown Kona that I've read about, and the first Christian church built in Hawaii in 1820-ish.
