Waikiki Yesteryear
Return to historic Waikiki, at a time when mule-drawn trolley cars transported tourists and locals into town, and when kamaaina families lived in lush, stately tropical compounds. Witness, through nostalgic photographs, the opening of the now legendary Royal Hawaiian Hotel, the famed luau that Queen Liliuokalani hosted for Robert Louis Stevenson, and Duke Kahanamoku and his beachboys teaching tourists to surf on 20-foot wooden surfboards. Written by noted tour leader and historian Glen Grant, Waikiki Yesteryear presents the stories, history and personages which have made Waikiki renowned. Includes 150 vintage photographs.
