I'm proofreading one of his bellicose, hyper-nationalist books for
Distributed Proofreaders. All I can find out about him are his dates
of birth and death, and lists of his publications. That is, all I can
find out about him online. Visits to the main Hawaii State Library are
problematic; too much walking and climbing required, and I'm crippled
with arthritis.

Does anyone have access to a bio? Or to a 1951 obituary? Probably in
the Times or another of the UK newspapers.

He fascinates me because he would have been a neo-con, had he been
American and lived 100 years later  :)  It's like watching a tiger in
the wild.
