In the Victorian era of England, foreign news was published in various journals and magazines. One of the most well known was the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS (ILN), started in 1843 and still published today. Quite often the news had taken up to three months to arrive, especially considering such far away places as Hawaii, which amazingly was fairly well covered. We are publishing a book in the near future, on the Hawaiian history, of these engravings but a few important examples are listed below.
