Book Synopsis Melanesian Stories by : Lawrence McCane

Book excerpt: Marist Brothers are a group of committed men whose mission is education, especially of the most needy students. Inspired by their founder's vision which encompassed the entire world, Brothers today reach out to all, wherever they are, with hearts that know no bounds. This book brings to life the stories of Marist Brothers' educational work in Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea. From uncertain nineteenth century beginnings, through the turmoil of the Second World War, the Bougainville Crisis and the Solomon Island Ethnic Tensions, the story of the coming of age of an authentic Marist Melanesian Brotherhood unfolds in these pages.
