In Western India

In Western India: Recollections Of My Early Missionary Life (1899) is a memoir written by John Murray Mitchell, detailing his experiences as a missionary in Western India during the late 19th century. Mitchell recounts his journey from Scotland to India, his struggles with learning the local language and customs, and his efforts to establish a Christian mission in the region. He describes the challenges he faced in trying to convert the local population, including resistance from Hindu and Muslim leaders, as well as the poverty and social inequality that he witnessed in the area. Throughout the book, Mitchell offers insights into the culture, religion, and daily life of the people of Western India, and reflects on the lessons he learned during his time as a missionary. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of Christian missions in India during the colonial era, and offers valuable insights into the challenges and rewards of cross-cultural communication and engagement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
