PRESS NOTICES
Original Edition.
"We are glad to welcome this book. It has been very well written; it is interesting throughout; one's attention never flags; it is exactly what was wanted by churchmen, and should be on the book-shelf of every churchman in at least this Colony.... We simply advise every one of our readers to buy it and read it, and let their boys and girls read it too."
Auckland Church Gazette.
"One reads it as eagerly as though it were a novel."
N. Z. Guardian (Dunedin).
"Just the book to present to any young clergyman who wishes to have the life of an ideal pastor before him."
Nelson Diocesan Gazette.
"A valuable addition to our growing library of historical literature."
Lyttelton Times.
"In many respects the book is a model biography."
Evening Post (Wellington).
"A very valuable contribution to the early history of New Zealand.... Throws considerable light on the pioneering days in Canterbury."
The Outlook.
REVISED AND ENLARGED EDITION
"To some extent re-written.... The additions considerably exceed the omissions.... Generally, in all respects in which the book is fuller it may be said to be more full of interest."
