Later he established his home on this tiny, distant, and isolated island. Though many business ventures failed, he dreamed of a "kingdom" on Laysan Island. Perhaps he dreamed and schemed also about the vast riches to be gained in the bird plumage trade. Max Schlemmer, Hawaii's King of Laysan Island takes place during an interesting period of Hawaiian history. Max is involved in rioting which leads to the overthrow of the monarchy and to Hawaii becoming the Territiory of Hawaii. Max is a constant gadfly to the local authorities; his actions often lead them into uncharted waters and reverberates finally in Washington D.C. Max Schlemmer, Hawaii's King of Laysan Island is also the story of the life and death of an island.
