Description
Edizione: a most attractive copy of this first one volume edition. this work begins with a brief history of the missionary foundations laid prior to tucker ?s arrival and then encompasses the eighteen years that tucker spent there (1874-1892), much of it as bishop of uganda . ?although this work touches, not infrequently, upon events having to do with the political, material and spiritual history, advancement, and development of uganda and east africa, it does not profess to be a complete record of them. it is simply a story of episcopal missionary life and work in equatorial africa? [preface]. complete with the hand-drawn and -painted sketches of the native people and environments that turner is especially well-known for including in many of his writings, this detailed portrayal of missionary life and work in the uganda area at the turn of the century remains a classic travel narrative.
