With compelling simplicity, The Peopling of Hawaii tells the story of the islands' growth. Hawaii's first immigrants, the Polynesians, lived in harmony with nature, but their distinctive stone-age culture declined rapidly following the arrival of Captain Cook, and the advent of Western culture. Sailors from trading ships, then missionaries, tradesmen, and contract workers flocked to the islands to work and stayed on to make Hawaii their home. Photographs of the past and present supplement the histories of various ethnic groups and the changes this influx of people has wrought on the island environment. Once self-sustaining, the islands have become almost completely dependent on outside sources for food and energy. Many writers have paid little attention to future problems inherent in unrestrained growth. But Nordyke graphically projects current population trends and possible alternatives through to the year 2070. Her book translates demographic statistics into a clear message, presenting a challenge to all concerned with the problems of population growth in a fragile environment of finite resources.
