Missionary Life Among The Cannibals: Being The Life Of John Geddie (1882) is a biographical work written by George Patterson. The book tells the story of John Geddie, a Scottish Presbyterian missionary who dedicated his life to spreading Christianity to the indigenous people of the South Pacific islands. The book describes Geddie's journey to the islands, his struggles in adapting to the local culture and language, and his efforts to convert the cannibalistic tribes to Christianity. The book also explores the challenges and dangers Geddie faced in his mission, including disease, violence, and opposition from colonial authorities. Through Geddie's story, the book offers insights into the history of Christian missions in the South Pacific and the impact of colonialism on indigenous cultures. Overall, Missionary Life Among The Cannibals is a compelling account of one man's commitment to his faith and his desire to make a difference in the world.With A History Of The Nova Scotia Presbyterian Mission On That Group.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
