"The Cruise of the Mary Rose; Or, Here and There in the Pacific" by William H.G. Kingston, is a tale of travel and faith in the Pacific, set in the late 1800s. Through the eyes of David Harvey, with deep family roots connected to faith, readers explore the lives of sailors and Christian missionaries as they meet diverse island cultures. The story begins by painting a picture of David’s devout family. Anchored by his father's teachings and the historical journal of his Uncle John, we learn of past voyages and missionary work. As the crew of the Mary Rose prepares to sail, the narrative teases encounters with unknown customs, spiritual beliefs, and possible conflicts among islanders, offering a window into the challenges of their Christian mission.
