It includes six reports on several missions in the North-West region of Western Australia, including Beagle Bay Mission (also referred to as the Dampier Peninsula Mission), Lombadina Mission, and Drysdale River Mission (referred to as the Napier Broome Bay Mission). The reports were authored by various people, including the Chief Protector of Aborigines, the Minister for the North West, and the commander of the HMAS 'Encounter'.
