Memoirs of the Hawaiian Revolution

Much has been written about Queen Liliuokalani's fall, but rarely do we hear from the man behind the overthrow. This book reveals Sanford Dole's account in his own words -an insider's perspective from the very man who shaped Hawaii's political transformation. Sanford Dole was a supreme court justice for the Kingdom of Hawaii. After he and other politicians overthrew Queen Liliuokalani's monarchy, Dole emerged as president of the newly established Republic of Hawaii.
