White Queen of the Cannibals: The Story of Mary Slessor of Calabar is a biography written by A.J. Bueltmann that chronicles the life of Mary Slessor, a Scottish missionary who dedicated her life to helping the people of Calabar in present-day Nigeria. The book explores Slessor's early life in Scotland, her decision to become a missionary, and her journey to Calabar, where she worked tirelessly to improve the lives of the local people, particularly women and children. Slessor's work with the Efik people, including her efforts to end the practice of twin killing and her advocacy for women's rights, is also detailed in the book. The author draws on primary sources, including Slessor's own letters and journals, to provide a vivid and engaging portrait of this remarkable woman who became known as the white queen of the cannibals. The book is an inspiring account of one woman's dedication to helping others, and it sheds light on the history of Christian missions in Africa 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.
