Eastern Africa As A Field For Missionary Labor

Eastern Africa As A Field For Missionary Labor: Four Letters To His Grace The Archbishop Of Canterbury (1874) is a book written by Bartle Frere. The book is a collection of four letters addressed to the Archbishop of Canterbury, in which Frere discusses the potential for missionary work in Eastern Africa. Frere, who was the British High Commissioner in Zanzibar at the time, argues that the region is ripe for Christian evangelism and that the establishment of a strong Christian presence there would benefit both the indigenous people and the British Empire. The book provides a detailed analysis of the social, political, and economic conditions in Eastern Africa, as well as an overview of the various religious traditions practiced in the region. Frere's letters are thoughtful and well-researched, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of 19th-century British colonialism and missionary work. Overall, Eastern Africa As A Field For Missionary Labor is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex interplay between religion, politics, and imperialism in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
