The Conversion of the Maoris, written by Donald MacDougall and originally published in 1899, is a historical account of the Christian missionary movement in New Zealand during the 19th century. The book chronicles the efforts of various Christian denominations, including the Anglican and Presbyterian churches, to convert the indigenous Maori people to Christianity. MacDougall draws on his own experiences as a missionary in New Zealand, as well as accounts from other missionaries and historical documents, to provide a detailed and nuanced portrayal of the Maori conversion process. He explores the challenges faced by missionaries, including language barriers and cultural differences, and the ways in which they adapted their message and methods to better reach the Maori people. The book also delves into the social and political context of the Maori conversion, including the impact of colonialism and the changing political landscape of New Zealand. MacDougall examines the role of Maori leaders in the conversion process, as well as the tensions that arose between different Christian denominations and between the Maori and European communities. Overall, The Conversion of the Maoris offers a comprehensive and insightful look into the complex history of Christian missionary work in New Zealand and its impact on the Maori people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
