About This Book

A comprehensive survey of the islands’ peoples, institutions, resources, and administration under post-occupation governance, blending historical narrative, ethnographic description of upland and non-Christian communities, and practical policy discussion. It follows the reorganization of public education and teacher training, documents exploration and the governance of indigenous tribes, and confronts social problems including slavery, peonage, and political violence. The work details infrastructure, forests, land use, and commercial prospects while presenting scenes of landscape and daily life, assesses legislative and judicial arrangements, and closes by weighing possibilities for political autonomy and recommending administrative and economic measures for future stability.
