Beskrivelse
Missionary journals, government publications, and articles in Hawaiian and English language newspapers provide the source material for this first comprehensive look at the transformation of funerary practices following permanent contact with the West. The documentary evidence tells the story of the adoption of new ways of honouring Hawaii royalty and the persistence of traditional practices.
