"This book is for those who have read James Michener's powerful novel 'Hawaii' and perhaps have wondered how much is true and what is more fictional. It is also for those who are interested in getting an honest picture of the work of the New England missionaries in Hawaii----their accomplishments in spite of their faults----in contrast to the questionable character of Abner Hale. It covers a wide range of missionary stories, anecdotes, episodes, comments, remembrances of missionary children, all selected from various sources to illuminate parts of Michener's missionary version with facts and true stories and to give a more complete view of missionary attitudes, actions and accomplishments...."----from the Introduction.
