A Light In The Land Of Sinim is a memoir by Harriet Newell Noyes, chronicling her forty-five years spent at the True Light Seminary in China from 1872 to 1917. The book provides a detailed account of Noyes' experiences as a missionary in China during a time of great social and political upheaval. Noyes shares her observations on the customs, traditions, and beliefs of the Chinese people, as well as her struggles and triumphs in spreading the Christian faith. The book also highlights the challenges faced by foreign missionaries in China during this period, including the Boxer Rebellion and the subsequent rise of nationalism. A Light In The Land Of Sinim is a valuable historical document that offers insight into the role of Christian missions in China and the impact of Western influence on Chinese society during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
