Unless autobiography, historians merely print hearsay.  Except for the descendant having received his ancestor's autobiography through unbroken chain of custody, publication is only a historian's educated guess.   The ruling "sovereign" always promotes history serving itself.   Kam School had never taught the Kingdom's full history, and kept its skeletons in the closet.  Kam was a US military institution intent on preparing kids for US wars abroad.  Who in Hawaii studied the Bishop-Damon run at the Kingdom a la Thurston, W.O. Smith, and Dole?  The vicious hatreds between Emma, Kalakaua, Keelikolani, Kapuaiwa and more?  The conniving of Cooke and Castle against Liliha?  The immaturities of Liholiho. Kauikeaouli, and Lot Alexander?   The sordid indiscretions of Paao and the sex rampages and assassinations among the Kanaloakua'ana royal house?  And more.  Nah, we studied the Revolution and Civil Wars.
