This book contains the writings of Ta'unga who lived on the island of Rarotong and travelled extensively in New Caledonia, the Loyalty Islands, and Samoa. From the DJ, his was "the first record by a resident of the indigenous cultures of teh south-eastern portion of New Caledonia at the time of the first contact with foreign commerce and religion. It is also the first published book to contain the writings of a Pacific islander writing about any country other than his own."
