Sobre este artículo
Boston: Lee and Shepard, 1898. First edition of the autobiography of Hawaii's last monarch. Octavo, original cloth, with 21 plates from photographs including the double frontispiece, top edge gilt. In very good condition. First editions are uncommon. This classic work is the only autobiography written by a Hawaiian monarch, and provides a glimpse of life in Honolulu during her lifetime. The Queen describes her childhood, and shares her thoughts on Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma, Kamehameha V, the reign of Kalakaua, and her marriage to John O. Dominis in 1862.
