Synopsis
Rethinking sugar, trade, and power in the Pacific.
This nonfiction work analyzes how sugar imports shape U.S. wealth and jobs, and argues for domestic beet sugar and strategic policy over Hawaiian annexation.
The book lays out a clear economic case: shifting production to the United States could protect workers, enrich the soil, and strengthen national industries. It also frames a bold proposal for a protective arrangement with Hawaii that would balance economic interests, national security, and democratic principles while reducing dependence on foreign sugar.- Why Hawaii and Cuba matter to the U.S. sugar supply and national wealth
