"Focuses on the experiences of Hawaiian men recruited by the United States government starting in 1935 for a unique expedition in the South Seas. The 130 men, many of whom were Kamehameha School for Boys students and graduates, occupied the uninhabited ... islands of Baker, Howland, and Jarvis continually, in three-month shifts of four men per island, in an attempt to help the United States assert territorial jurisdiction over the islands, a jurisdiction crucial to air supremacy in the Pacific"--Introd.
