Description
"The Gates of Morning" by H. De Vere Stacpoole is a romance novel published in 1925. The final installment of the Blue Lagoon trilogy follows young Dick Lestrange, now declared king of a vulnerable South Sea island. As he works to protect his adopted people from external threats, a mutiny aboard a pearl-hunting schooner brings violence to their shores. Written as an exposé of European destruction of island cultures, the novel weaves together themes of innocence, exploitation, and survival in paradise. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
