The Deep Sea Canoe: The Story of Third World Missionaries in the South Pacific

by Alan Richard Tippett

This updated version of Tippett's 1977, The Deep Sea Canoe, describes a significant but often overlooked aspect of the expansion of Christianity in the South Pacific, that of South Sea Island believers who carried the gospel from one island to another in their deep sea canoes. It is a well-researched study by one who knew the islands and their people, a man known by the Fijians as one who spoke their language.
