Acknowledgments
As colleagues of mine learned that I had opened work on a book about the Americanization of Hawai‘i, I was warned that I would be rapping on a hornet’s nest. “You know, they really don’t like Americans poking into their history over there.” “Don’t be surprised if they don’t give you much cooperation.”
I did not find this to be the case whatsoever. What I found was that in Hawai‘i the spirit of aloha remains an important touchstone of cultural identity. I was welcomed and encouraged, occasionally squinted at askance and adjured but in the best-intended way. Suspicion that I might not be the first choice to write such a book as this was generously masked with wonderfully helpful pointing of direction and willingness to allow me continuing engagement. It is a pleasure to acknowledge these debts:
At the Hawai‘i State Library and Archives: Luella Kurkjian.
At the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa Library and Archives, Hawaiian and Polynesian Collection: Lynette Furuhaka.
At the Hawaiian Historical Society: Barbara E. Dunn and Ipo Santos-Bear.
At the Mission Houses Museum: Mike Smola and Carol White.
At the Hawaiian Judiciary Center: Keahe Davis and Toni Han Palermo.
With the Daughters of Hawai‘i: Della Kua‘ana at Queen Emma’s Summer Palace and B. K. Calder at the Hulihe‘e Palace.
At Kilauea National Park: Helene Buntman.
At Pu‘ukohola National Historic Site: Joon So.
More than by anyone else, I was bowled over by the knowledge and passion of independent scholar Boyd Bond of Kohala, descended from the Judds and the Bonds, blue-eyed but as native as can be. Producing a grand unifying theory of Hawaiian history and culture that has universal approbation may prove as elusive as producing one of the universe itself, but if I met anyone with the voice and the temperament to do it, he can.
In the writing of history, one does not meet many genuine game changers. Howe
ver, the effort to resuscitate Hawaiian language sources has been given an electric shock by M. Puakea Nogelmeier at the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa, and his kind reception and encouragement are deeply appreciated.
In commercial publishing, the term “meritorious” is the kiss of death. Most of my best book ideas will never see light of day, because while they are acknowledged as quality projects that would be edifying to the public, they are not perceived as profitable. For Captive Paradise, huge thanks are due to my literary agent, Jim Hornfischer, who strongly advocated moving this project ahead of others that were pending; to my editor, Charles Spicer at St. Martin’s, for perceiving that once Hawai‘i’s story was presented to the mainland audience, they would actually buy books.
And above all: not until this effort have I had to work so fast as to engage a research assistant—a term that he modestly awarded to himself—but this book would not have happened without Jody Edward Ginn, in real life a Ph.D. candidate at the University of North Texas and producer with Texas History Films. His omnipresence as my right-hand man (which, being left-handed, I found particularly useful) was indispensable. Because of the unforgiving nature of clock and calendar, I had to trust him to evaluate whole collections of documents, and his eye for spotting the glint of gold in the folder of gravel saved me months of work.
For many other kindnesses and paving my way, thanks are due to Paul and Rachel Sheffield, Greg Hermida and Laura MacLay, Quinn Argall, Laurence Jackson, Evan Yeakel, Craig Eiland, Jim Kunetka, and especially Brent and Gina Bliven.
