Excerpt from The Tourists' Guide Through the Hawaiian Islands: Descriptive of Their Scenes and Scenery
Hawaii is a land of perennial spring. It is nature's garden of fruits, flowers and most luxuriant verdure, where figs and straw berries are as abundant and luscious in December as in June; where roses, lilies and carnations bloom the year round, as brilliant and fragrant in winter as in summer. Its climate can justly be called semi-tropical, without the Oppressive heat of the tropics or the insidious chills and fevers of the temperate zone. Winter and summer are simply conventional terms, and are distinguished from each other chiefly by the length of the days and the brilliancy of the moon, shining as only it can in the tropics. Frost and snow are unknown, save as occasional object lessons on the mountain summits that peer far above the cloud-belts of Hawaii and Maui. Tornadoes and cyclones never disturb its serene atmosphere, and the records of a century chronicle no storms to compare with the destruo tive hurricanes of the East and West Indies, or even with modern American blizzards.
