Synopsis
The Aloha Guide by Ferdinand J. H. Schnack The Aloha Guide is a comprehensive travel handbook to the Hawaiian Islands, written for travelers and residents of the early 20th century. This volume blends survey-style information with practical guidance, offering extended treatments of Honolulu and the major islands, maps, illustrations, and a wealth of timetables and rates for steamships, hotels, canneries, and public utilities. It covers geography, geology, and early history—from Polynesian settlement to Captain Cook and the colonial era—alongside demographic data and immigration trends that shaped Hawaii's cosmopolitan population. The book explains the Hawaiian language, land tenure, education, climate, fauna and flora, and the island economy, especially sugar, pineapple, coffee, and rice. It describes government structures, judicial systems, and federal-territorial relations, and provides detailed guidance for visitors: hotel accommodations, streetcar routes, sightseeing itineraries, and excursions to volcanoes such as Kilauea and Haleakala, as well as trips to Maui and Kauai. Rich with tables, lists, and bibliographies, The Aloha Guide aims to enhance appreciation and efficient touring of Hawaii’s Paradise of the Pacific.
