Excerpt from Selections From the Autobiography of the Rev. William Gill (Author of "Gems From the Coral Islands"): Being Chiefly a Record of His Life as a Missionary in the South Sea Islands My great-grandfather was born at Culmstock, Devon; he was a wool-comber, a business of some importance in his time. He died at a good old age in 1790. My grandfather was born in 1756, and spent the early years of his life in Culmstock. He followed the same business as his father. He removed from Culmstock to North Tawton, where he married. He died in May, 1819, aged sixty-three. My father was born at North Tawton in 1789. At the age of fourteen he was apprenticed to the trade of tanner and currier at Crediton, and at the age of twenty-two years he removed to Totnes, where he was married on April 6th, 1812. My mother was a native of Harberton, a village near Totnes; her parents were attached members of the Church of England, and were much esteemed by the inhabitants. Her maiden name was Bartlett.

This collection of essays looks at missions, their complicity in European colonialism, and their postcolonial aftermath. It examines the spread of Christianity, ranging over the anthropological, textual, historical, and geographical dimensions of mission enterprises, with topics as diverse as the influence of mission printing and record-keeping on traditional life in Africa to the role of missions in changing styles of dress in India. Also, uniquely, the collection includes essays analyzing the role of proselytizing in Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, as well as American liberal democratic capitalism. The volume is interdisciplinary, focusing on textual and material aspects of missions. Like Griffiths' earlier ground-breaking books in postcolonial studies, and Scott's well-known interdisciplinary work on missions and postcolonial literatures, this collection will be fascinating to scholars in postcolonial/cultural and mission studies and be useful as a teaching tool as well. Mixed Messages was listed among the 15 best books for 2005 in the Jan 2006 issue of The International Bulletin of Mission Studies .

The modern understanding of climate extremes in the vast Pacific Ocean has been hampered by an incomplete picture of the incidence of such extremes in the past. For the first time in this book is given a largely complete account of extreme events – tropical cyclones (hurricanes) and droughts – culled from a myriad of sources, ranging from whalers’ logs to missionary diaries, as far back in time as written records extend. This book is an essential reference for anyone interested in the nature and recurrence times of climate extremes in the Pacific Ocean. It also provides fascinating insights into the historical impacts of extreme events on often highly vulnerable island populations and livelihoods and, in doing so, underscores their continuing vulnerability as they confront 21st-century climate change.

Cluny and La'avasa Macpherson have carried out intensive investigation into the practice and beliefs of contemporary indigenous healers, or fofố, in Western Samoa to produce a fascinating and throughful study.
