Missionary Explorers Among The American Indians is a non-fiction book written by Mary Gay Humphreys. The book explores the lives and experiences of Christian missionaries who lived among the Native American tribes of North America during the 19th century. The book is divided into 14 chapters, each of which focuses on a different missionary and their work among the indigenous peoples. The book provides a detailed account of the challenges faced by the missionaries, including language barriers, cultural differences, and hostility from the native population. The book also explores the impact of the missionaries on the Native American communities, including the introduction of Christianity and Western education. The author uses primary sources such as letters, journals, and memoirs to bring the stories of these missionaries to life. The book is an insightful and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Christian missions and the interactions between European settlers and Native Americans in North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
