- Summary
- "Waikiki: A History of Forgetting and Remembering presents a cultural and environmental history of the area, exploring its place not only in the popular imagination, but also through the experiences of those who lived there. Employing a wide range of primary and secondary sources - including historical texts and photographs, government documents, newspaper accounts, posters, advertisements, and personal interviews - an artist and a cultural historian join forces to reveal how rich agricultural sites and sacred places were transformed into one of the world's most famous vacation destinations."--Jacket.
