Early Inhabitants: Polynesians, an ancient sea-faring people, cruised the Pacific Ocean in their durable boats and eventually found Hawaii. Other adventurous people found the islands long before the Europeans landed.
Voyages Of Captain Cook: Accompany one of Europe's greatest explorers - Captain James Cook - as he journeys to the Hawaiian islands in 1778 and 1779. Initially welcomed to the island as a "god," Cook was later killed in a violent encounter between his men and the Hawaiians.
The 20th Century: In 1898, the Hawaiian Islands became a U.S. territory and their character was forever changed. Native culture declined while foreign influence prevailed. Finally in 1959, Hawaii became our 50th state. |
