The book History of the Sandwich Islands Mission by Rufus Anderson is a comprehensive account of the Christian missionary work in the Hawaiian Islands during the 19th century. The book covers the period from the first arrival of the missionaries in 1820 to the establishment of a strong Christian community in the islands. The author, Rufus Anderson, was a prominent American missionary who played a key role in organizing and supporting the mission. The book provides an in-depth look at the challenges and successes of the mission, including the cultural and linguistic barriers that the missionaries faced. It also explores the impact of the mission on the Hawaiian people and their society, including the transformation of their religion, education, and political system. The book is well-researched and includes primary sources such as letters, journals, and reports from the missionaries themselves. It also includes illustrations and maps to help readers better understand the geography and culture of the Hawaiian Islands during this time period. Overall, History of the Sandwich Islands Mission is an important historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of Hawaii and the role of Christian missionaries in shaping its culture and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
