| Description: |
The Hawai`i Political History Documentation Project features interviews with forty-three former office holders, aides, appointees, party organizers, union officials, lobbyists, and political observers who share their perspectives on territorial and state politics in the islands. In these volumes are transcripts of videotaped life history interviews with many well-known and some lesser-known individuals who initiated, participated in, and/or closely observed many political developments of the last half-century. The interviews cover a diversity of topics: the interviewees’ family background, childhood, community, education, work, early political activities and observations, political career, political philosophy, political leadership, and reflections on political and social change in Hawai`i. |
