Hardcover / Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Hardback. On September 12, 1931, Thalia Massie, the young wife of an American Naval officer, walked out of a party in Honolulu and was found 2 hours later wandering along a lonely beach road, her face bruised. Her story was that she had been beaten and raped by 'a gang of Hawaiian boys'. Thus began the world-famous Massie case, in which Thalia Massie identified as her assailants five boys who - as the author shows - could not have been guilty. Why would Thalia Massie have lied? And why did the Honolulu police try to manufacture evidence? Many more questions arise as the author unravels this strange and suspenseful affair: Why was the American public aroused, not at the attempts of the white authorities to pin the crime on boys, but at their failure to do so? Why did the great American barrister, Clarence Darrow, go to Hawaii to defend not the alleged rapists, but rather the white lynch gang - among whom was the elderly socialite mother of Thalia Massie herself - which had murdered one of the accused boys in a bizarre episode? The author follows the case - and fully documents each step - from the alleged rape to the slaying and its tragic aftermath. Included in the book are photographs of unique documents which were thought to have been secretly destroyed. Illus., Glossary and Notes. 304pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Lightly browned pp. o/w Vg+ in sl. sunned vg. dw.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Massie-Kahahawai case of 19311932 shook the Territory of Hawai'i to its very core. Thalia Massie, a young Navy wife, alleged that she had been kidnapped and raped by "some Hawaiian boys" in Waik k . A few days later, five young men stood accused of her rape. Mishandling of evidence and contradictory testimony led to a mistrial, but before a second trial could be convened, one of the accused, Horace Ida, was kidnapped and beaten by a group of Navy men and a second, Joseph Kahahawai, lay dead from a gunshot wound. Thalia's husband, Thomas Massie; her mother, Grace Fortescue; and two Navy men were convicted of manslaughter despite witnesses who saw them kidnap Kahahawai and the later dis- covery of Kahahawai's body in Massie's car. Under pressure from Congress and the Navy, territorial governor Lawrence McCully Judd commuted their sentences. After spending only an hour in the governor's office at 'Iolani Palace, the four were set free.Local Story is a close examination of how Native Hawaiians, Asian immigrants, and others responded to challenges posed by the military and federal government during the case's investigation and aftermath. In addition to providing a concise account of events as they unfolded, the book shows how this historical narrative has been told and retold in later decades to affirm a local identity among descendants of working-class Native Hawaiians, Asians, and othersin fact, this understanding of the term "local" in the islands dates from the Massie-Kahahawai case.The Massie-Kahahawai case revealed racial and sexual tensions in preWorld War II Hawai'i that kept local men and white women apart. And this tension coexisted with the uneasy relationship between federal and military officials and territorial administrators. …
