Item description from seller

- Octavo, 9-1/2 inches high by 6-1/2 inches wide. Softcover, bound in buff paper wraps, titled with illustrations in black on the front cover. The covers are soiled, darkened and heavily chipped. The front cover is detached and sections of the spine have perished. pages [1]-30, [i]-[viii], 799-950 and [33]-88, with profuse textual illustrations and pictorial ads throughout. The pages are darkened and there is some dampstaining to the front edges of a few pages. There are penciled marks in the margins of the index to technical periodicals. A complete issue. Among articles worth noting is an illustrated article on "Ship-Building on the Great Lakes" by Henry A. Griffin and a nineteenth century article on climate change by meteorologist Henry Allen Hazen (1849-1900) titled "Is the Climate Changing?".The civil engineer Theodore Graham Gribble (1851-1947) who from 1886 to 1890 was the chief engineer to the Hawaiian Railways and Tramways, and later to the elevated railway of Chicago has contributed an article on the "American Annexation of Hawaii". In 1893, foreign residents of Honolulu, consisting mostly of Americans, instigated a coup d'etat against Queen Liliuokalani who reigned until then over the Kingdom of Hawaii. Using the unrest as a pretext they then urged John L. Stevens, the American foreign minister, to call in the U.S. marines to protect American interests, an action which effectively supported their rebellion. The Republic of Hawaii was thus born and annexation, their ultimate goal, finally occured in 1898.
