About this book

Writing from Sydney on 25 February 1890, Robert Louis Stevenson answered a letter in which the Reverend Dr. Hyde of Honolulu had belittled Father Damien, the priest who served on Molokai. Hyde had called Damien coarse and credited the island's reforms to its Board of Health. Stevenson quotes the letter in full, says he will judge it from several points of view, and sets out to draw the dead priest's character again.
