Event Recap
New Year's Day Open House |
The Army and Navy Club's annual New Year's Day Open House was a huge success! The Club welcomed over 600 members and their guests. Heavy hor d'oeuvres, endless desserts, and holiday cocktails were abundant. Each year members are invited to the Club to enjoy the facility and reconnect with old friends. This has been an ANC tradition dating back over 20 years, and is a wonderful "perk" of membership! |

re-evaluation of existing sources in the U.S., Japan, and Hawaii, Pacific Gibraltar is the first major account of the annexation of Hawaii.
The book clarifies murky episodes in the story of annexation, such as USS Boston's mysterious return to Honolulu in time to land sailors and marines during the Hawaiian Revolution, President Cleveland's failed attempt to restore Queen Lili'uokalani, and the growing threat to the white rebel government from burgeoning Japanese immigration.
