The Hawaiian Islands: Their Progress And Condition Under Missionary Labors (1864) is a historical book written by Rufus Anderson. The book provides a detailed account of the progress and condition of the Hawaiian Islands during the period of missionary labors. It covers the history of the islands from their discovery by Captain Cook in 1778 to the arrival of the first Christian missionaries in 1820. The book describes the impact of Christianity on the Hawaiian people and their society, including the establishment of schools and churches, the translation of the Bible into Hawaiian, and the spread of Western values and customs. It also discusses the political and economic changes that occurred during this time, including the transition from a feudal system to a constitutional monarchy and the growth of the sugar industry. The author draws on his own experiences as a missionary in the Hawaiian Islands and includes firsthand accounts of important events and people. The book provides a unique perspective on the history of Hawaii and its people, as well as the role of missionaries in shaping its development. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Hawaiian history, Christianity, or missionary work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
