Erromanga: The Martyr Isle is a book written by Hugh A. Robertson that tells the story of the small island of Erromanga in the South Pacific. The book chronicles the history of the island from the arrival of the first missionaries in the 19th century to the present day. It focuses on the impact of Christianity on the island and the struggles faced by the local population as they adapted to the new religion and the changes it brought to their way of life.The book also explores the tragic events that occurred on Erromanga in the 19th century, when a group of missionaries were killed by the local population. This event, known as the Erromanga Martyrdom, had a profound impact on the Christian world and is still remembered today.Throughout the book, Robertson provides a detailed account of the island's geography, culture, and traditions. He also discusses the challenges faced by the island's inhabitants, including the impact of colonization, disease, and environmental degradation.Overall, Erromanga: The Martyr Isle is a fascinating and informative book that provides a unique insight into the history and culture of a small island in the South Pacific. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, colonialism, and the impact of globalization on traditional societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
