""The Kingdom In The Pacific"" is a historical book written by Frank H. L. Paton in 1912. It is an account of the author's experiences during his time as a missionary in the Pacific Islands, particularly in the Kingdom of Tonga. The book provides a detailed description of the customs, beliefs, and way of life of the Tongan people, as well as their interactions with European missionaries and traders. Paton also writes about the political and social changes that occurred in Tonga during his time there, including the introduction of Christianity and the establishment of a constitutional monarchy. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Pacific Islands, as well as the role of missionaries in colonialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
