  EPILOGUE

  Liliuokalani's story thus ends with her forced abdication and retirement to lovely Washington Place, where she lived quietly "among her flowers." Writing, music, and her many welfare projects occupied her time, and, before her death in 1917, she was revered and admired by a younger generation. Audiences always rose in her honor when "Aloha Oe" was played. In 1911 she was an interested observer and guest at the opening ceremonies of Pearl Harbor, which she witnessed from the US S California, seated with her old enemy and successor Sanford B. Dole. When the United States entered World War I, she presented a Red Cross flag to the first Hawaiian chapter of the American Red Cross, and, for the first time, the Stars and Stripes flying over Washington Place proclaimed her loyalty.

  Hawaii's story, of course, does not end with Liliuo-kalani's. The long struggle for statehood, the growing pains of a multi-racial territory, the development of the enormous sugar and pineapple industries, and tourism in this crossroads of the Pacific are too well known for recounting here. World War II, with its influx of military and civilian personnel, and the mushrooming of air travel all served to bind Hawaii closer to the mainland. In 1959 all Americans were proud to claim this Pacific paradise as their fiftieth state.
