From Sword to Share: Or A Fortune in Five Years at Hawaii is a book written by Henry Whalley Nicholson and published in 1881. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences in Hawaii during the mid-19th century. Nicholson was a British officer who arrived in Hawaii in 1851 and quickly became involved in the local economy, eventually amassing a small fortune. The book provides a detailed account of Nicholson's life in Hawaii, including his interactions with the local people, his business ventures, and his personal experiences. The author also provides a historical perspective on the political and economic climate of Hawaii during this time period. From Sword to Share is a fascinating look at a pivotal moment in Hawaii's history, as the island chain was transitioning from a traditional society to a modern, capitalist economy. The book is a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in the history of Hawaii or the Pacific region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
