LiliUokalani

by Ruby Hasegawa Lowe

Lili'uokalani was the younger sister and chosen heir of Kalakaua. The last ruling monarch and only queen of the kingdom of Hawaii, she fought unsuccessfully to maintain Hawai`i as an independent nation.

This book is one of a series originally written by faculty in a Kamehameha reading program. The books were designed to increase students reading skills and their knowledge of Hawaiian history and culture by focusing on topics such as the Hawaiian monarchy.

Some of these books have been translated from their original English into Hawaiian through the efforts of the staff of the Kamehameha Schools Hawaiian Studies Institute.
