Napoleon of the Pacific, Kamehameha the Great

by Herbert Henry Gowen

This republished book is the biography of Kamehameha the Great. The first king of Hawaii who united all the islands and created an independent nation out of warring tribal areas. The author (Dr. Herbert H. Gowen) has done an excellend job depicting the legends and myth surrounding the birth of Kemahameha. I have taken the task of reediting and reformating the book that was scanned from the original, 1919 Fleming H. Revell edition.
