The book is written in a narrative style that vividly captures the challenges and triumphs of missionary work in the mid-19th century. Cannon's exploration of the cultural and religious differences between the Hawaiian natives and the Mormon missionaries adds depth to the text, making it a valuable historical and cultural resource.
