description: 9/11 was only the latest blow to Hawai'i's economy, writes Grandy (public administration, U. of Hawai'i). The Gulf War of 1991, the recession, and the Asian financial crisis all reduced tourism. Grandy discusses each of these factors as well as Hawaiian policies, particularly those of Governor Ben Cayetano. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
