Pau Hana: Hawaiian Plantation Life, Work, and Historical Labor Practices

Description

Ronald Takaki 

Softcover, 228 pp.

“A scholarly work but as readable as a novel, this is the first history of plantation life as experienced by the laborers themselves. The oppressive round-the-clock conditions under which they worked will make you glad they fought back in one huge strike; Takaki charts this conflict well.” –San Francisco Chronicle
