Island of Kings - Harry Whittington

Across a Raging and Merciless Sea They Came... the men of Captain James Cook whose two English vessels came upon paradise - and destiny - in the violence and tranquility of the islands. Here were sights as yet unseen by civilized eyes. Here were sultry tropic splendors. Rare exotic foods. Here were gloriously beautiful women... And Here Was Kamehameha the great king whose name was at once a legend, a prayer and a course... who dared the wrath of the gods and the fury of his enemies in a dream of conquest - as ruler of all the Hawaiian Islands. And out of the clash of these two cultures - in combat, in romance, in intrigue and ecstasy - the stirring epic of America's Eden unfolds! Island Of Kings weaves glorious history around the lives of a young midshipman who dared desire a princess, a great chief who called him both cherished friend and hated foe, and a people who fought and bled to serve a mightly, savage land. źródło opisu: Lynx Books New York, 1989 źródło okładki: Zdjęcie autorskie
