Internment in Hawaii was far more severe than it was in Arkansas. This claim is supported by both primary sources, derived mainly from oral interviews, and secondary sources made up of scholarly research that has been conducted on the topic since the events of Japanese American internment occurred.

  • Photographically Illustrated Books About Hawai'i, 1854-1945
    LYNN ANN DAVIS Photographically Illustrated Books about Hawai'i, 1854-1945 THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY surveys books and pamphlets about Hawai'i with photographic illustrations.1 The first book illustration, from a daguerreotype, was an engraved portrait of the heir to the Hawaiian throne, Alexander Liholiho, published in 1854. The bibliography ends with the close of World War II in the Pacific in 1945. From the 1850s on, the U.S. government was increasingly interested in Hawai'i's strategic location. The Hawaiian Islands were the winter port for the American whaling fleet in the 1840s and 1850s. The discovery of gold in California in 1849 brought Americans to the West Coast, and by 1853 there were covert discussions about the possible annexation of the Islands by the United States. In January 1893 the Hawaiian monarchy was overthrown. An interim government was established, and businessmen with American ties lobbied the U.S. government for territorial status. This politically tumultuous period coincided with a development in printing tech- nology that, for the first time, made it possible to easily and cheaply reproduce continuous tone photographs by making halftone repro- ductions. Lynn Ann Davis is from Kane'ohe, O'ahu. She is Head of the Preservation Department at the University of Hawai'i at Mdnoa Library and previously worked at Bishop Museum as Chairman of the Archives and Visual Collections from 1973—93- She received a master's degree from University of New Mexico in 1984, and has published books and articles about photography in Hawai 'i.

The U.S. military suffered 18 ships damaged or sunk, and 2,400 people were killed. Its most significant consequence was the entrance of the United States into World War II.
