Excerpt from Our New Possession: Late German New Guinea When our globe was still young, mighty vol canio forces created some of the islands now embraced in the late German New Guinea, whilst at other places, where subterranean mountains in vain had striven to emerge from the mighty ocean, billions of minute creatures set to work building homes, eventually bringing into being the picturesque coral islands with which the South Seas are dotted.

Book Description
Excerpt from Our New Possession: Late German New Guinea Having in my younger days received a military training and been a commissioned officer in the Danish army, and later on having held a commission in the Commonwealth forces, it became my duty, at the outbreak of war, to volunteer for service abroad. The Naval Board, on learning of my qualifications as a linguist, requested me to proceed to the fleet as interpreter to Admiral Patey. After the capture of German New Guinea and the appointment of Colonel Holmes as military administrator I was transferred to the occupying force. To my duties as official interpreter was for a considerable time added that of military censor of foreign mail. I was also appointed Government Printer, and in this capacity became editor of the "Government Gazette," and later on of the "Rabaul Record." The knowledge I acquired of German New Guinea in the carrying out of my various duties, and by coming in touch with German records and literature, was added to by personal observations made in different parts of the Possession, and by a term of service as district officer and officer in command of the garrison at Madang, on the New Guinea coast. The chapter "How the Germans Came into the Pacific" was written for the "Rabaul Record" by Lieut. Leach, and has been included in this book by his courtesy.
