When, in 1872, he needed to supplement the chapters in his personal narrative Roughing It, he drew upon his twenty-five articles for the Sacramento Union and his personal notes to supply the additional recollections here presented.  The views of the \"Sandwich Islands\" reported by America's most famous lecturer and beloved novelist in 1866 may differ somewhat from those of the visitor of the 1990s. \"The Huckleberry Finn of foreign correspondents,\" however, gives many faithful accounts of old Honolulu, the nobility and their ceremonies, the somnolent islands of Maui, the native sport of surfriding, the City of Refuge on the Kona Coast, and the active volcano of Kilauea. And the light touch of the great humorist is seldom missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Mark Twain\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003eEdition: New edition\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Pages: 106\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Mutual Publishing\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 31 Dec 2001\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Like New","offer_id":39474074878033,"sku":"PS1331","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":39474074910801,"sku":"PS1331","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Good","offer_id":39474074943569,"sku":"PS1331","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Well Read","offer_id":39474074976337,"sku":"PS1331","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/9780935180930.jpg?v=1717774683","url":"https:\/\/thryft.asia\/products\/mark-twain-in-hawaii-roughing-it-in-the-sandwich-islands-hawaii-in-the-1860s","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
