African Holocaust: The Story Of The Uganda Martyrs is a book written by John F. Faupel that tells the story of a group of young men who were martyred for their faith in Uganda in the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to their martyrdom and the cultural and political context in which it occurred. The book begins with an introduction to the history of Christianity in Uganda and the arrival of the first missionaries. It then goes on to describe the lives of the young men who would become known as the Uganda Martyrs, including their upbringing, education, and conversion to Christianity. The book also explores the political climate in Uganda at the time, including the tensions between the British colonial authorities and the local kingdoms. It describes how the young men's refusal to renounce their faith and their loyalty to their king led to their brutal torture and execution. Throughout the book, Faupel provides insight into the cultural and religious beliefs of the Ugandan people, as well as the impact of colonialism on their way of life. He also highlights the bravery and devotion of the Uganda Martyrs, who remain an inspiration to Christians around the world. Overall, African Holocaust: The Story Of The Uganda Martyrs is a powerful and moving account of a tragic event in African history that continues to resonate today. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in Africa, the impact of colonialism, and the struggle for religious freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
