This is a full-color reproduction of a school atlas created and printed in Lahainaluna, Maui, in 1840.“The atlases produced at Lahainaluna are beautiful works of art as well as landmark geographic publications. They clearly reflect the fact that the Hawaiians involved in the process had mastered new geographic concepts and new communication technology—and mastered them exceedingly well.” —from the Introduction by Gary L.
