Seven Years In Ceylon: Stories Of Mission Life (1890) is a memoir written by Mary Leitch about her experiences as a missionary in Ceylon (now known as Sri Lanka) during the late 19th century. The book is a collection of stories that offer a glimpse into the daily life of missionaries and the challenges they faced in a foreign land. Leitch describes her journey from Scotland to Ceylon, her struggles to adapt to a new culture, and the relationships she formed with the local people. The book also explores the social and religious customs of the Sinhalese and Tamil communities, as well as the impact of British colonialism on the island. Through her vivid descriptions, Leitch provides an intimate portrait of life in Ceylon during a time of great change and upheaval. Seven Years In Ceylon is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on the lives of missionaries and the complex dynamics of colonialism in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
