Paperback. Condition: New. NEW. A modern reprint of the scarce work of 1911. Illustrated, small 8vo, pp xvi, 172, paperback, very good copy. [What is most captivating about this book is the eloquent style of its author, Eda Green, in describing the geography of the land, its history and customs of its peoples. Much of the text is focused on Sarawak during the era of the White Rajah. Sir James Brooke, the first White Rajah, landed in Sarawak in 1839 and in 1847, during a visit to England, he appealed to the church at home to help him establish a mission in Sarawak. The first church was consecrated in 1851. The next sixty years, until this book was published, would be trying years for the church. Missionaries of the church would come and go with such high frequency that something had to done to remedy the situation. Perhaps with a better insight of the land and its people, and the express need to convert the "heathens" from their life of uncivilized practiceshead hunting being one of themmore missionaries would take up the challenge to dedicate their lives to such a worthy cause. The first half of the book covers generalities such as the natural features and various native tribes of Borneo, their customs, superstitions and beliefs. The second half provides the historical background of James Brooke's governance of Sarawak and his efforts in bringing Christianity to the land. The final three chapters deal with the mission itself and its attempts to propagate the Christian faith. The book, first published in 1911 by the Borneo Mission Association, is enhanced considerably by photographic images of the native people themselves and drawings of the many items that represent aspects of their daily lives of that period.

This book narrates the story of the diocese of Algoma, Canada, a diocese whose communities were established in a land inhabited by the Indigenous Ojibway people and later founded by French Jesuit missionaries. Its chapters detail the arrival of settlers, the development of a fur trade, and the subsequent transformation of the landscape through the establishment of towns and industries. Through it all, the Anglican Church played a pivotal role, with missionaries traveling great distances to establish communities, translate scripture, and provide spiritual guidance to both the Indigenous population and the growing number of settlers. The book delves into the impact of the church on the region, exploring the challenges faced and the significant contributions made to the development of the diocese. By examining the interplay between the church and the communities it served, this book offers a unique perspective on the history of both the diocese of Algoma and the broader Canadian context in which it evolved. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
