The Advance of the Missionaries - Being the Expansion of the CMS Mission South of the Bay of Islands, 1833-1840

AH & AW Reed, Wellington, 1939. Minor wear to dustjacket at spine ends, foxing to page edges and endpapers.

To take a seven-year period, 1833 to 1840, of early mission work in New Zealand, and produce a masterly record of those times, so full of human interest and of such valuable historical significance, deserves the greatest praise. - Foreword
