The seaport town of Lahaina served as the capital and center of government for the Hawaiian Kingdom from 1820 until 1845. Maui was also an international whaling center in the 19th century where, at one point, 400 whaling ships visited the island during a single season. On November 26, 1778, explorer Captain James Cook became the first European to see Maui. Cook never set foot on the island, however, because he was unable to find a suitable landing. Kamehameha I invaded Maui in 1790 and fought the Battle of Kepaniwai. It wasn’t until a few years later that he finally subdued Maui. Hāna Ranch, Maui Sites of Interest Kā‘anapali Beach The Kā‘anapali area was once a retreat for the high chiefs of Maui. Along this coast is a cliff called Keka‘a, also known as Black Rock. This sacred site is believed to be a place where souls jump off into the spirit world. ‘Īao Valley State Park The Battle of Kepaniwai was a significant battle in Kamehameha’s unification efforts, upon which his forces defeated Maui’s army, led by the Chief Kahekili.

    HAWAII National Park HAWAIIAN ISLANDS UNITED STATES RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION N AT IONAL PAR.K. SERIES n A 5 o The world-famed volcano of Kilauea, eight miles in circumference An Appreciation of the Hawaii National Park By E. M. NEWMAN, Traveler and Lecturer Written Especially for the United States Railroad Administration §HE FIRES of a visible inferno burning in the midst of an earthly paradise is a striking con­ trast, afforded only in the Hawaii National Park. It is a combination of all that is terrify­ ing and all that is beautiful, a blending of the awful with the magnificent. Lava-flows of centuries are piled high about a living volcano, which is set like a ruby in an emer­ ald bower of tropical grandeur. Picture a perfect May day, when glorious sunshine and smiling nature combine to make the heart glad; then multiply that day by three hundred and sixty-five and the result is the climate of Hawaii. Add to this the sweet odors, the luscious fruits, the luxuriant verdure, the flowers and colorful beauty of the tropics, and the Hawaii National Park becomes a dreamland that lingers in one's memory as long as memory survives. Pa ae three To the American People: Uncle Sam asks you to be his guest. He has prepared for you the choice places of this continent—places of grandeur, beauty and of wonder. He has built roads through the deep-cut canyons and beside happy streams, which will carry you into these places in comfort, and has provided lodgings and food in the most distant and inaccessible places that you might enjoy yourself and realize as little as possible the rigors of the pioneer traveler's life.

CINCINNATI•:• CHICAGO AMERICAN BOOK C.OMPANY Digitized by Google ' .. HARVARD COLLEGELIBRAllY BEQUESTOF RCLANOBUr.ll,' , ,E DIXOII f,'.AY 19, 1936 0oPYBIGRT, 1891, BY AlilBIOAN BooK Co)[PA.NY. W. P. 2 1 Digit zed by Google \ PREFACE AT the request of the Board of Education, I have .fi. endeavored to write a simple and concise history of the Hawaiian people, which, it is hoped, may be useful to the teachers and higher classes in our schools. As there is, however, no book in existence that covers the whole ground, and as the earlier histories are entirely out of print, it has been deemed best to prepare not merely a school-book, but a history for the benefit of the general public. This book has been written in the intervals of a labo­ rious occupation, from the stand-point of a patriotic Hawaiian, for the young people of this country rather than for foreign readers. This fact will account for its local coloring, and for the prominence given to certain topics of local interest. Especial pains have been taken to supply the want of a correct account of the ancient civil polity and religion of the Hawaiian race. This history is not merely a compilation. It is based upon a careful study of the original authorities, the writer having had the use of the principal existing collections of Hawaiian manuscripts, and having examined the early archives of the government, as well as nearly all the existing materials in print.

SC.5.2.1 Use models and/or simulations to represent and investigate features of objects, events, and processes in the real world. Description: This lesson explores the forces of weathering and erosion that shape our island home. It recounts volcanic creation, and then delves into the gradual destruction caused by the forces of wind, water, ice and waves. Duration: 60 minutes Objectives: At the end of this lesson, the students will be able to: Describe the impacts of deposition, weathering, and erosion on landforms.

  • MAUI: the MAGIC ISLE Stand Above a Sea of Clouds High Atop Haleakala
    MAUI: THE MAGIC ISLE Stand above a sea of clouds high atop Haleakala. Watch a 45- foot whale breach off the coast of Lahaina. Lose count of the waterfalls along the road as you maneuver the hairpin turns of the Hana highway. One visit and it’s easy to see why Maui is called “The Magic Isle.” The second largest Hawaiian island has a smaller population than you’d expect, making Maui popular with visitors who are looking for sophisticated diversions and amenities in the small towns and airy resorts spread throughout the island. From the scenic slopes of fertile Upcountry Maui to beaches that have repeatedly been voted among the best in the world, a visit to the Magic Isle recharges the senses. But like every good magic trick, you’ll have to see it for yourself to believe it. YOUR FIRST TRIP TO MAUI The thought of lying on sun soaked beaches regularly named “the best” by travel magazines is enough to make any of your friends jealous. But once you arrive on Maui, you’ll see there’s so much more for them to envy. Most flights arrive at Maui’s main airport, Kahului Airport (OGG). Many airlines fly direct to Maui while others include Maui as a stopover. You’ll find resorts and hotels of every size and budget in Kapalua, Kaanapali, Lahaina, Kihei, Makena and Wailea on the sunny western coast as well as one resort in Hana in East Maui. It’s about a 45-minute drive from Kahului Airport to Lahaina. Once you’ve settled in you’ll want to explore Maui’s sweeping canvas of attractions.

  • The Entomology Branch of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture Has Maintained a Continuous Program of Beneficial Organism Introductions for Many Years
    Vol. XXII, No. 1, August, 1975 109 Introductions for Biological Control in Hawaii, 1973 H. K. Nakao, G. Y. Funasaki and C. J. Davis STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE HONOLULU, HAWAII The Entomology Branch of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture has maintained a continuous program of beneficial organism introductions for many years. This paper includes a list of beneficial insects introduced for biological control during 1973, and gives notes on the status of some pests and their purposely introduced enemies. Snail Pest Control Achatina fulica Bowdich (giant African snail). Giant African snail populations remained at low levels in former high density localities on Oahu and Maui. Efforts to eradicate or contain the snail continued on the islands of Kauai and Hawaii. On Kauai, metal- dehyde bait applications were made throughout the year in localized infestations at Poipu and Wahiawa. On Hawaii, a shipment of Gonaxis quadrilateralis (Preston) from Oahu was released along the perimeter of the snail infestation in Kahaluu (Kona) in January, and an aerial bait application was made covering 65 to 70 acres, in August. Galba viridis (Quoy & Gaimard) (liverfluke snail). No recoveries have been made of Sepedon plumbella Wiedemann, S. senex Wiedemann and S. n. sp., sciomyzids introduced from Southeast Asia in 1971 to aid in the control of Galba viridis, the intermediate host of cattle liverfluke. Populations of G. viridis, however, were reported at low levels on Oahu, Maui and Hawaii and this may, in part, be attributed to the predation of Sepedon sauteri Hendel and S. macropus Walker. Weed Pest Control Lantana camara var. aculeata L.
