Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christianity and the Progress of Man We begin to speak with increasing frequency of the characteristic events and changes of the nineteenth century, as it draws rapidly to its close. Two of the greatest facts, I ought to say the two greatest facts, are undoubtedly the unification of the race and the establishment of the Christian religion as a working force among nearly all nations. The two facts are closely related both in nature and history. How the one universalistic religion has been molding the life of the one race of mankind during the nineteenth century - that is the subject of this little book. My obligations to friends and authors are numerous. The works to which I owe most are, the great missionary biographies of Dr. George Smith, the remarkable "Report of the Missionary Conference, London, 1888" (which I cite by the abbreviation, "L. M. C."), and Mr. Edwin Hodder´s comprehensive history of modern missions entitled, "The Conquests of the Cross." Of course there is a large amount of missionary literature to which I am indebted which it is needless to specify.
