Notes of Mission Work in Madagascar is a book written by Thomas Trotter Matthews in 1881. The book is a first-hand account of Matthews' experiences as a missionary in Madagascar during the late 19th century. Matthews was a member of the London Missionary Society and spent several years in Madagascar, where he worked to spread Christianity and establish churches.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Matthews' work in Madagascar. He describes his interactions with the Malagasy people, their customs and traditions, and the challenges he faced in communicating with them. Matthews also discusses the political situation in Madagascar at the time, including the influence of the French colonial government and the resistance of the Malagasy people to foreign control.Throughout the book, Matthews provides detailed descriptions of the various missionary activities he engaged in, such as preaching, teaching, and providing medical care. He also describes the establishment of schools and churches, as well as the challenges of training local pastors and evangelists.Overall, Notes of Mission Work in Madagascar provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of 19th-century Christian missions, as well as the history and culture of Madagascar. Matthews' writing is clear and engaging, and his passion for his work is evident throughout the book.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
