Biography of Founder Queen Emma

“Emma Kaleleonalani left the bulk of her estate, some
13,000 acres of land on the Big Island and in Waikiki on
Oahu, in trust for the hospital that honors her.”
Due to this thread, I did a bit of reading up on some of the queens and kings. Very sad stories, many of them. When I was there for a week in 1970, people often called it “Queen Emma”.
I often think Hawaii would have been better off if it stayed a separate kingdom. Too late, now.
