Description: "What drove a hodgepodge band of clerics, lacking even a common language, to strike out for the wilds of Australia in 1845? History teaches us the official reasons - to minister to the two million 'savages' in Western Australia - but this book, through personal letters and other first-hand accounts, tells a more human story."--Back cover.
