Our Hawaii is a non-fiction book written by Charmian Kittredge London, the wife of famous American author Jack London, and published in 1917. The book is a personal account of the couple's travels and experiences in Hawaii, where they lived for several months in 1915. The book is divided into 22 chapters, each covering a different aspect of Hawaii, including its history, culture, geography, and people. Charmian's writing style is descriptive and immersive, providing readers with a vivid picture of Hawaii's beauty and charm. She also shares her personal observations and opinions on various topics, such as the impact of American influence on Hawaiian culture and the treatment of native Hawaiians by colonial powers. The book also contains numerous photographs taken by Charmian and Jack during their stay in Hawaii, adding to the visual appeal of the text. Overall, Our Hawaii is a fascinating and insightful look into Hawaii during a pivotal moment in its history, as it transitioned from a sovereign nation to a territory of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
