Excerpt from The Call of the Dark Continent: A Study in Missionary Progress, Opportunity and UrgencyThis little volume has been written for a special purpose - namely, as a text-book for Missionary Study Circles. It is not intended for advanced students or returned missionaries, but for those who are begin ning the study of Missions to Pagan Africa. With no pretence to originality, the writer has sought to supply just such facts about the country, the people, and missionary work, as may serve as an introduction to the subject. The book claims to be nothing more than a primer. It is not in any sense a history of Wesleyan Missions, for it has not been the writer's purpose in any way to forestall the great work on which Dr. G. G. Findlay is engaged The book gives a series of pictures, rather than a history, of Missions to the pagan races of Africa. The Muslim countries of North Africa do not lie within the scope of this volume.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
