019: The Pali
Vintage sepia-toned photograph of the famous Pali (cliff) on Oahu, Hawaii. Ca. 1920. Caption reads: "The Pali, known around the world--In April, 1795, Kamehameha the Great, Napoleon of the Pacific, overthrew the forces of the King of Oahu at the battle of Nuuanu Pali. This historic spot, famed for its marvelous view and howling winds, is seen on the 85-mile drive from Honolulu around the Island of Oahu. The Pali is Oahu’s scenic lion."
