| Summary | "G. A. Selwyn, D.D.: Bishop of New Zealand and Lichfield" by Louise Creighton is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life and influential work of George Augustus Selwyn, focusing on his contributions as a missionary bishop in New Zealand and his role in establishing the Anglican Church there. It explores his challenges, the complexities of his mission among the Maori and settlers, and his vision for a united Church in a newly formed land. The opening of the book introduces George Augustus Selwyn's early life, detailing his privileged background and education that prepared him for a significant ecclesiastical career. It highlights Selwyn's strong sense of duty to serve wherever needed, which ultimately led him to accept the position of Bishop of New Zealand during a time when the region was still largely undeveloped and rife with cultural tensions between the Maori and European settlers. Through the early passages, readers gain insight into his character, his aspirations, and the foundational mission work he undertook in a challenging and often dangerous environment.
