Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book surveys the history of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, touching on various missionary endeavors initiated since its inception in 1810. Beginning with the initial struggles and organizational changes, the book details expansions of the missionary work to encompass the training of native personnel and the establishment of churches; and touches on the challenges and changes that came with the Civil War. The book goes on to discuss the geographical expansion of the missions including work in Africa, Armenia, and China among others. Balancing the statistics provided by the American Board with the personal memoirs of the missionaries themselves, the book conveys the costs and rewards of the missionary life and the profound impact of these efforts on the spread of Christianity and global education.
