Description

With the introduction of land titles and ownership, Hawaiian land could now be bought, sold, mortgaged, and foreclosed. The new concept of land, coupled with a foreign-controlled government indifferent to native land-rights and a steady decline in the native population, proved disastrous for Hawaiians."--BOOK JACKET.
