Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of the Universities Mission to Central Africa: From Its Commencement Under Bishop Mackenzie, to Its Withdrawal From the Zambesi This story of the Universities´ Mission to East Central Africa is simply my African Journal adapted to the narrative form. I have been led to publish it partly by the urgent request of many who thought that a full and unreserved account of the Mission was needed, and partly because friends in whose judgment I have great confidence have thought that it would find readers, not only among the professed supporters of Missions, but also among the many who, from whatever cause, are interested in the African race. The portrait of Bishop Mackenzie is from a photograph taken at Cape Town after his consecration; the portraits of the Rev. H. De W. Burrup, the Rev. H. C. Scudamore, and John Dickinson, Esq., are from photographs taken before they left England; while those of the Ajawa are from photographs which my friend Horace Waller, Esq., had taken at Cape Town. Several of the other illustrations, as will be seen, are from sketches by Dr. Meller; the rest from sketches by myself.
