"... Tells the remarkable story of Futuna Chapel's design and construction, its use for many years as a place of retreat and contemplation, its recognition as a leading example of New Zealand architecture, its loss of context (spiritually and physically), its dereliction, purchase and renaissance - and its transformation from a Catholic place of worship to a non-denominational centre for architectural, cultural and spiritual encounter"--Publisher information.
