Description:Excerpt from Around the World Tour of Christian Missions, 1882, Vol. 1: An Universal Survey Upon return to America, the writer of the following pages was urged by the executive officers of several of the missionary societies of the different branches of the Church to publish a record of personal impressions regarding the utility and methods of Christian Missions. It was thought that very exceptional opportunities of comparative study had been enjoyed in the two years' tour of the majority of mission fields throughout the world, and that a volume, such as it has been the endeavor to make the following, should be the first fruits. While acknowledging special obligations to the Church of England Missionary Atlas, to the late survey of Protestant Missions by Professor Christlieb of Germany, to the published papers of the recent Mildmay Conference, and to contributions to missionary literature from the Secretaries of the Congregationalist and Presbyterian Boards, the endeavor has been to write as far as possible from the field rather than from the library shelves. The best books of reference are the missionaries themselves and their work. We linger a little longer than some may desire before embarking upon the Pacific, yet America is a great continent to cross, and the necessary week enables us to consider the questions of home missions and home resources, upon which rests all foreign evangelization.
