Allan Saunders

Description:

"Allan Frederic Saunders came to the Islands in August 1945, on a one-year appointment to the University of Hawai'i's Government Department. He was forty-eight years old - not a young man and by some standards not an entirely successful one. Although an academic by nature and choice, he had been unable to settle into and become tenured in a compatible institution. Yet Allan Saunders found his niche in Hawai'i. He knew within a matter of weeks that this was where he wanted to remain. He stayed to become a much-loved teacher and administrator in the University and a pillar of the community."--BOOK JACKET.
