Whitney, which presents details and statistics of the Hawaiian Islands at the time of publication, along with a "Historical Sketch of Hawaiian Volcanoes" and several pages of tables presenting the results of the 1866 census. Though completely reorganized to be printed in two columns, many of the illustrations from the first edition have been maintained in the new layout. In the rear of the volume are eighteen pages of printed advertisements for Hawaiian businesses, including one for the book and stationery shop of Thomas Thrum, who eventually bought the remainder of this edition and reissued it in the 1880s without the frontispiece photograph or printed ads.
