"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.
