Hawaii Scandal Review"Hawaii Scandal" is a very intriguing book, one that works on many levels. It is at once a mystery and a courtroom drama, but also a tale of innocence lost. The story is set in the decade prior to the Pearl Harbor bombing, undoubtedly the single most important event in the history of the islands, and the act which propelled the United States into World War II, and ultimately towards becoming an enormous global superpower.
Populated with such luminaries as legendary trial lawyer Clarence Darrow, the book begins with the alleged rape of the wife of a U.S. Navy Lieutenant by a group of local island boys. The reaction of both the Hawaiian governor as well as the Navy officials gives insight into the deepening distrust and alienation between the Americans and the Hawaiian people. The events spiral into murder, and the subsequent criminal trials offer fascinating insight into the tenuous relationship between the island people and the American government.
This is a true story and one gets the impression that Cobey Black has done the painstaking research needed to provide an accurate detailing of the events. But the author tells the story in the form of a novel, which allows the reader to gain insight into the characters and absorb the texture of their plight. And the metaphors of a woman's dignity taken from her can be applied to the heavy handed manner in which the Americans took over Hawaii and used her for their own purposes. The woman and her family are forever changed, and shortly thereafter, the Hawaiian islands would be forever changed as well.
Next to James Michener's magnificent story, "Hawaii Scandal" is probably the next most insightful book about how the islands became what they are today. The book is well written, well researched, and tells a tale which many of us are unaware. But what makes this an especially worthwhile and satisfying read is the author's ability to take the story to another level, one that leaves the reader with an understanding of what Hawaii became, and the price that was ultimately paid.
