"Waikiki, one of Honolulu's most famous neighborhoods, had already become a crowded tourist destination when Henry Wessel photographed there in the late 1970s and early 80s. This book contains Wessel's edit of these pictures and is a record of American leisure at this time--of surf, sand and inexhaustible pleasure-seekers. Yet Wessel equally explores the contradictions of Waikiki--concrete hotels invading pristine beaches, culture encroa ..."

Henry Wessel (born 1942) arrived in Sunset Park from New Jersey in the 1970s, while staying at a friend's house in that area. "It was like being in paradise," he wrote. "The l ..."
