Beskrivelse af The Lepers Of Molokai (1885)
The Lepers of Molokai is a historical non-fiction book written by Charles Warren Stoddard in 1885. The book is a detailed account of the lives of the lepers who were exiled to the island of Molokai in Hawaii during the 19th century. Stoddard, a journalist and travel writer, visited the island in 1884 and spent several months living with the lepers, observing their daily lives, and documenting their experiences.The book provides a vivid and poignant portrayal of the harsh realities faced by the lepers, who were banished from society and forced to live in isolation on the remote island. Stoddard describes the physical and emotional toll of the disease, the struggles of daily life in the isolated colony, and the resilience and courage of the people who lived there.Throughout the book, Stoddard also provides historical context and background information on the leprosy epidemic in Hawaii, the government policies that led to the creation of the Molokai colony, and the efforts of various individuals and organizations to improve the lives of the lepers.The Lepers of Molokai is a powerful and moving account of a forgotten chapter in Hawaiian history, and a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
