Book Description
Yankee Tsunami: An Engulfing Wave by Andrew R. DiConti is a historical novel that covers a period of a year (1898-99) aboard the USS Boston, an innovative warship for the period. The adventures and exploits of Gamble Crane, a newly billeted crewmember, is a continuation of Yankee Tsunami: The Ocean Erupts, which began his adventures in exotic ports. Crane's taboo romance with Emily Chan, a girl of Chinese ancestry from Monterey, California, becomes complicated. Both lovers are American citizens, yet the mixing of the races in 1899 is viewed as scandalous. Crane's love for Emily is precipitated by their adventure that frees two young girls forced into the slavery of prostitution. This event begins Crane's metamorphosis of understanding. Learning of Emily's struggle to gain acceptance in the white community of Monterey begins the conversion of Crane into an advocate for human rights of non-white peoples in each port visited by the Boston. Gamble now empathizes with the struggle of people living on the rim of the Pacific, called "heathens" by whites. With Gamble Crane as our guide, we learn what the world was like as told by the Pacific Rim peoples. We are exposed to the unsettling effects brought to bear by Manifest Destiny, America's governing principle seen by many in the region as racist. From that point, Crane views his encounters from a different perspective. Be it Okumura-san, an important Japanese government official in Nagasaki; Lanakila, the Kahuna Nui of Honolulu; Donaldina Cameron, the avenging angel of Chinatown; Agamemnon Asher, a shipmate who's like a brother; or Montague, a retired shipmate and expert in Asian culture - they all have an indelible impact upon the life of Gamble Crane.

Book Description
In 1893, the reigning Queen of Hawaii, Liliuokalani, was surreptitiously and unlawfully overthrown by a contingent of wealthy and ambitious Americans who had settled in the islands. Despite the efforts of many of her constituents and the support of President Cleveland, the native people of Hawaii, the Kanaka Maoli, had never regained any control over any of their lost lands until the present day. But, born out of the spirit of hope and what some would call the spiritual will of their ancestors, a great Hawaiian leader emerges from within that people. In the boldest of ways, he and his underground movement of revolutionaries regain control of the Hawaiian Islands and resurrect the Hawaiian nation. How is this done in one of the most heavily fortified military outposts of America away from the mainland USA? And is he and his band of rebels able to maintain this control and convince America and its leaders to acquiesce to the basic morality of his objectives? This novel is about the great, enduring love of one giant figure in a most alluring culture. His deep love of a woman is given up for the love of his people. It is a great sacrifice deemed necessary to achieve his most noble path in life. Will his people follow in his path and make the difficult commitments needed to maintain their unique culture and the precious lands, the aina, they now control in Hawaii?
