Africa Rediviva: Or the Occupation of Africa by Christian Missionaries of Europe and North America (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Africa Rediviva: Or the Occupation of Africa by Christian Missionaries of Europe and North America
IN the course of the compilation of my two volumes of the Modern Languages of Africa, I became so interested in that country, that I proposed to write two additional volumes, one on the Political Scramble for Africa, and the second on the Missionary Occupation of Africa. The scramble has this year come to an end, but in the interim it has been described by most competent authors, so'l pass it by: the second subject remains mine and mine only. The great majority of writers would not notice the Missionary Occupation at all, and, if any Protestant and Roman Catholic friend of Missions has turned his attention to the subject, each has absolutely ignored, or undervalued, the work of his great Rival. I am tall enough to look over the barrier, only breast-high, which separates earnest Christian workers.
