Married to Melanesia

First published in 1974, Muriel Jones tells of how she came to start her married life in her 40s in Melanesia, of the impact of Christianity on a pagan people, and of their changing way of life. Her story takes one about as far as it is possible to go from an urban civilisation and reveals the resources of her own character.
