Description
"The Big Island's Hilo Coast was the classic plantation community—with brawny mills, tidy camps and broad fields of billowing green. A boy could ride the flumes, watch the Sunday cockfights or spend his pennies at the general store. And a man could make an honest living, in the bittersweet era when cane was king. From the Island of Hawaii, here is sugar's story—through the eyes of one who lived it"--From back cover.
