Watriama and Co: Further Pacific Islands Portraits
Watriama and Co (the title echoes Kipling's Stalky and Co!) is a collection of biographical essays about people associated with the Pacific Islands. It covers a period of almost a century and a half. However, the individual stories of first-hand experience converge to some extent in various ways so as to present a broadly coherent picture of 'Pacific History'. In this

The Sinclairs of Pigeon Bay and the Romantic 'Prehistory' of the Robinsons of Ni'ihau
Francis and Elizabeth Sinclair and their six children migrated from Scotland to New Zealand in 1840. Francis died there in 1846 and in 1863 Elizabeth resettled her, by then expanded, family in Hawai'i. There they bought the island of Ni'ihau and prospered as ranchers and planters, especially after the 1880s under the family name of Robinson. The early history of the family, up to the 1860s, has been often told, but never completely and often inac…
Niels Peter Sorensen: The Story of a Criminal Adventurer
For much of his long life (1848-1935) Niels Peter Sorensen operated beyond or very close to the margins of legality. His activities thus brought him to the notice of various administrative and law enforcement agencies. Consequently, their archives offer a rich, if widely scattered, record of his ignoble career. Trouble makers attract attention, and generate paper. Since he was particularly involved with the Solomon Islands, this was especially so…
Maine, Massachusetts, and the Marists: American Catholic Missionaries in the South Pacific
MAINE, MASSACHUSETTS, AND THE MARISTS: AMERICAN CATHOLIC MISSIONARIES IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC BY Hugh Laracy* There may be no "Grand Design" behind the unfolding and configuring of human affairs. Even so, the Pauline vision of "all things working together unto one" (Eph. 1:10; Rom. 8:28) remains relentlessly attractive , especially in retrospect. In order to understand the who? how? what? where? when? and why? of particular, local, and relatively ob…

Indeed, it was in its nature that it should be so. The r?gime was brought into being in 1906 to deal with the rival and complexly ramified British and French interests that had developed in the group during the 19th century through the presence there of traders, missionaries and p…

This essay, it must be confessed, had its genesis in the virtue of pietas. It is no coincidence that the authors and their subject share the same name. But it is hoped that its significance is rather more than that of an exercise in ancestor worship. For the career and writings of Mick Laracy illuminate several important facets of New Zealand's industrial history. These include the bearing of Australian contacts on trade union organi sation, the …

It marks the beginning of a positive, though scarcely spectacular, process of reinvest ing Solomon Islanders with responsibility for their own affairs. There have been two main parts to this process. Internationally, there was pro duced an ethos of decolonization which was to be influential at the govern ment level; locally, among the islanders, it sparked a powerful proto nationalist …

The first mission to Tikopia
TION of the western Pacific is the little-known attempt by Catholic mission aries, Marists, to extend their work to Tikopia in 1851-52. It achieved nothing, yet cost the lives of three missionaries. It is linked with the loss of possibly two ships and their crews and produced a series of visits to the island by Europeans, but has apparently been forgotten by the Tikopians.1 The Melanesian Mission did not reach Tikopia until 1858. The leader of th…
