With 2 Maps and 8 Portrait Illustrations, 511 pages. Large crown 8vo, cloth gilt, 3s. 6d. In padded paste grain, round corners, gilt edges, 6s. 6d. net.“Altogether no brighter or more skilful narrative of missionary life—from the subjective as well as from the objective point of view—has ever been published than this.”—The Spectator.“It is the best missionary biography that has appeared during the last twenty years. It is a book that will live and take rank as a missionary classic. It is full of thrills, tremulous with pathos, glowing in its passion, and sublime in its tragic ending. A book to be read and re-read when the enthusiasm of humanity wanes, and we are tempted to let fireside heroics take the place of action.”—The Daily News.GRIFFITH JOHNThe Story of Fifty Years in China.By R. WARDLAW THOMPSON, D.D.(Foreign Secretary of the London Missionary Society).Fifth Impression. With Two Maps and Sixteen other full-page Illustrations. Demy 8vo, cloth gilt, 568 pages, 3s. 6d.“No one can read this story without being inwardly refreshed. The mere adventure side of it is stirring to a degree. It reveals a Pauline daring and endurance.”—Christian World.“The story of Dr. John’s life is a very fascinating one, and it is told by Dr. Wardlaw Thompson with much literary skill, and excellent taste and judgment.”—The Westminster Gazette.W. HOLMAN BENTLEYThe Life and Labours of a Congo Pioneer.By his Widow, H. M. BENTLEY.With a Photogravure Portrait, Map, and 19 other Illustrations, 466 pages, demy 8vo, cloth gilt, 6s. net (by post, 6s. 5d.).“This highly interesting memoir forms a worthy tribute to the honourable life and devoted labours of a notable pioneer of Christianity in Darkest Africa, who gave twenty-seven years to missionary work upon the Congo.… The book forms an admirably interesting life-story of successful mission work.”—The Standard.“Important in itself as the record of a notable, heroic and consecrated life, important also in the influence which it is sure to have on scores of young men and women in our Churches.”—The Baptist Times.[128]BISHOP HANNINGTONAnd the Story of the Uganda Mission.Prepared by W. GRINTON BERRY, M.A.With Map, Portrait, 3 Coloured and 4 other Illustrations, crown 8vo, cloth gilt, Coloured Medallion on Cover, 1s. 6d.The personality of Hannington was full of colour and vigour, and the story of his work, particularly of his adventures in East Africa, ending with his martyrdom on the shores of the Victoria Nyanza, is one of the most fascinating in missionary annals. Hannington was himself a picturesque writer, with a noteworthy gift of producing dashing and humorous descriptive sketches, and quite a third of the present volume consists of Hannington’s own narratives. This volume will serve to sustain and deepen the perennial interest in Uganda, where the Gospel has won some of its most glorious triumphs.ALFRED SAKERThe Pioneer of the Cameroons.By his Daughter, E. M. SAKER.With Map, 3 Coloured and other Illustrations, Coloured Medallion on Cover, crown 8vo, cloth gilt, 1s. 6d.The Cameroons are a little known land, but they have been the scene of some of the most interesting work done by British missionaries on the West Coast of Africa. The land, like Sierra Leone, long justified the title of “The white man’s grave.” The people were savages, amongst whom it was not easy to work. The language was new, and Alfred Saker gave his life to this field. The story of his adventures and encouragements is singularly interesting.A DOCTOR AND HIS DOG IN UGANDAFrom Letters and Journals of A. R.

A great deal has been published from time to time on Uganda and the Uganda Mission, but this is the first book recounting the experiences of a Medical Missionary. To one who remembers the past history it is wonderful to read a book like the present.”—Eugene Stock.“This little book will be of interest to people other than those actively engaged in mission work, for the social and economic conditions of the country are by no means lost sight of.”—Manchester Courier.“We know of no other book which gives so vivid and realistic a picture of the daily life of the missionaries of Uganda.”—Record.London: THE RELIGIOUS TRACT SOCIETY.ColophonAvailabilityThis eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
