Central Africa, Japan And Fiji: A Story Of Missionary Enterprise, Trials, And Triumphs is a book written by Emma Raymond Pitman in 1882. The book tells the story of the author's experiences as a missionary in Central Africa, Japan, and Fiji. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on one of the regions that the author visited.

She writes about the challenges she faced, including language barriers, cultural differences, and the harsh living conditions.In the second part of the book, Pitman shares her experiences in Japan, where she worked as a missionary for several years. She describes her efforts to spread the Christian faith among the Japanese people and the many obstacles she encountered along the way.The third part of the book focuses on Pitman's time in Fiji, where she continued her missionary work. She writes about the challenges of working in a society that was still largely pagan and the triumphs she experienced as she helped to bring Christianity to the Fijian people.Throughout the book, Pitman provides vivid descriptions of the people, places, and cultures she encountered on her travels. She also shares her personal reflections on the meaning and purpose of missionary work and the role of Christianity in the world. Overall, Central Africa, Japan And Fiji: A Story Of Missionary Enterprise, Trials, And Triumphs is a fascinating account of one woman's experiences as a missionary in some of the most challenging and rewarding regions of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
