A history of the Melanesian Mission in Auckland..

A stone building and some ancient trees still mark the site at Mission Bay where Islanders and their teachers lived and studied.These reminders of the Bay's past are largely unnoticed by the thousands who throng the beach during the summer months.. The NZ Historic Places Trust has become involved and the aim has been to restore the old stone building itself and to kindle the interest of NZers in the Mission by informing them about its poignant early history..

• A fascinating and unique look at Auckland's early history,written by the distinguished Auckland historian Ruth Ross.A 'must have' for all those interested in Auckland,or NZ history in general.Very collectable.
