About this book

The book 'Pacific Confluence' is written by Christen T. Sasaki. 'Pacific Confluence: Fighting over the Nation in Nineteenth-Century Hawai’i' is a groundbreaking study that sheds light on the pivotal years between 1893 and 1898 in Hawaiian history. Contrary to the expectation of inevitable US annexation, Sasaki reveals the unstable nature not only of the coup state but also of the entire US kingdom. The book analyzes competing empires, white supremacy, and clashes over nationhood, sovereignty, and land.
