My Hawaii 1938-1962: with Personal Recollections of Pearl Harbor December 7, 1941 Jane Thomas

The Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, brought to a sudden end my happy, carefree, post college years in Honolulu. I found myself on duty that morning in the laboratory of The Queen's Hospital with only a Japanese aide for a helper. This book tells the story of the major changes that took place during the twenty-four years I spent in the Islands. My marriage to a naval officer engineer took us after the war to the Island of Maui, where we lived first in a rain forest and then on a sugar plantation.
