Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Melanesian Mission It needs but little consideration to grasp the importance of the fact that the development of so large a section of the world should have been in the hands of the great English men who have freely given themselves, their powers, their strength, and in two cases their lives for it; and not supinely left to the traders in human flesh who did so much to hamper their labour.
