"Scenes in the Hawaiian Islands and California" by Mary E. Anderson is a travel narrative written in the mid-19th century. The book documents a journey to the Hawaiian Islands and California, detailing the landscapes, cultures, and experiences encountered by the author and her family. It likely aims to provide readers with insight into the beauty and uniqueness of these locations while intertwining personal anecdotes and observations. The opening of the narrative introduces the story from the perspective of a family aboard the steamer Ocean Queen as they embark on a voyage from New York to the Hawaiian Islands. The narrative begins with the children eagerly requesting their aunt to recount stories about their adventures, and as the journey unfolds, readers are treated to vivid descriptions of the ocean, interactions with other passengers, and a sense of anticipation for the places they will visit. Introducing classic travel elements, such as excitement at the passing of porpoises and the threat of pirates, the beginning sets a tone of curiosity and adventure, preparing the reader for the explorations of both natural wonders and cultural encounters that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
