Orders from disorder? King Kalākaua’s 1881 global tour and the Hawaiian monarchy’s late nineteenth-century deployment of royal orders and decorations
The history of the late nineteenth-century Hawaiian kingdom is often viewed as an inevitably tragic story. It comprises the rapid decline of the native Hawaiian population through disease, the weakening of Hawaiian monarchs’ political autonomy by pro-American sugar interests, followed by the US-led overthrow of the monarchy in 1893. The story culminates in formal annexation of the kingdom in 1898 and supposedly ends with Hawai’i’s admission as Am…
Monarchies and decolonisation in Asia
My young Tasmanian cousin’
Recent scholarship has drawn attention to the complexity of animal–human relationships on board ships, but we still know relatively little about crewmembers’ responses to animals on board nineteenth-century British warships, especially on overseas voyages. The 1869–70 Flying Squadron voyage provides a useful case study. On board each of the squadron’s six warships sailed dozens of officers, hundreds of sailors and a fluctuating number of live ani…
Royals on tour
Royals on Tour explores visits by European monarchs and other members of royal families to overseas colonies, and by indigenous royals from the colonies to Europe in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. It presents case studies of travel by royals from Britain, France, Portugal, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium to the overseas possessions (and, in some cases, potential possessions) of their countries, and of visits to Europe by …
Crowns and Colonies
Crowns and Coloniesis a set of sixteen original essays by distinguished international scholars that explore the relationship between European monarchies and overseas empires. The essays argue that during much of the history of colonialism there existed a direct and important link between most colonial empires and the institutions of monarchy. The contributions, which encompass the British, French, Dutch, Italian and German empires, examine the co…

Sea stories and sea pictures
From the 1850s through the early 1900s, the Victorian artist George Gordon McCrae kept a close eye on the shipping entering Port Phillip Bay near Melbourne. In addition to merchant vessels and private pleasure craft, McCrae recorded the visits of foreign warships in hundreds of lively pen, ink and watercolour sketches. But McCrae was a writer as well as an artist, whose mind was as much concerned with the past as the present. McCrae juxtaposed im…

Telling the Story
This essay examines Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh's visit to South Africa in 1867. Prince Alfred (1844–1900) was the second son of Queen Victoria and a career naval officer, who travelled not as a royal passenger but as Captain of the Royal Naval frigate HMS Galatea. Aboard were some 540 men and boys, from humble sailors to aristocratic equerries. How did contemporaries aboard and ashore interpret the voyage? Drawing upon a diverse range of primary s…
