Sea of opportunity

the Japanese pioneers of the fishing industry in Hawaiʻi

This text presents a part historical and a part ethnographic study of Japanese fisheries in Hawaii from the late nineteenth century to contemporary times. Unlike most of the previous works on Japanese immigrants to Hawaii, which focus on sugarcane plantations, this breakthrough work is the first comprehensive history of Japanese as fishermen.
