Apologies everyone for the long break! We are back with our next episode of EGT Reads with a book called "Kanaka" by Richard K. Hussey. As everyone I know seems to be flocking to Hawaii for vacation, we here at EGT thought it would be fitting to read a book about this tropical locale. "Kanaka" is written to be an accurate and historical account of Hawaiians in the California Gold Rush. It is about the Hawaiian people living in paradise while adapting to the new government imposed by the United States. The plot centers on a young Hawaiian man who leaves home on a whaling ship to seek his fortune and adventure. The book deals with racism, poverty, wealth, and relationships. 

If you would like to buy a copy of this book, please reach out to Richard K. Hussey at his number (916) 277-5332.
