Oahu/Hawaii History Books?
Hi all, I've been perusing the boards for my trip to Oahu in October. I know there are some Hawaii experts out there and I'm looking for some recommendations for books about the history of the people/islands/culture etc. I like to be a bit "immersed" before I go!
Thanks!

One that my wife picked up is The Betrayal of Liliuokalani by Helena G Allen.
